Description
Rosemary is a house built around 1830 by William Phillips, a builder from Woodbury. The front is made of brick, while the rest is roughcast cob, topped with a gabled-end slate roof. It has a single depth cottage plan featuring two rooms with a central staircase located at the rear of the entrance hall. The house has two storeys and a symmetrical front with three window openings, all fitted with 12-pane hornless sash windows beneath brick arches. The corners of the building have rusticated quoins.
A notable feature of Rosemary is its elaborate porch, which includes a fascia decorated with two wooden dolphins facing each other, likely from the 17th century, and a tympanum featuring a large scallop shell with swags above the door lintel. The porch has a slate roof and is supported by console brackets. The rear wall has a ship's porthole that illuminates the stairs. Inside, the house retains contemporary joinery.
