Description
Rosechurch Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the 18th and 19th centuries, with renovations made around 1980. It is built from exposed local stone rubble, featuring stone rubble stacks with plastered brick chimney shafts, and has a thatched roof, although the early 20th-century roof is covered with concrete tiles. The cottage has a three-room layout facing southeast. The left room (southwest) has an axial stack that backs onto the center room, while the right room has a gable-end stack. There is a straight join between the left and center rooms, suggesting that the left room may have originally been a one-room cottage that was later enlarged or that another cottage was built alongside it; the evidence is unclear. In the early 20th century, a sunroom extension was added to the left end of the cottage. It is two stories tall.
The exterior features an irregular four-window front with 19th and 20th-century casements that include glazing bars, and there is a small 20th-century canted bay window to the right of center. The front doorway is located at the left end and has a 20th-century part-glazed door behind a contemporary thatch-roofed porch. The front was likely stuccoed in the 19th century, as indicated by a surviving quoin strip at the left end. The 20th-century extension at the left end features an arch-headed doorway. The roof is gable-ended. The interior was not available for inspection at the time of this survey.
