Description

Rose Cottage is a house that likely dates from the 16th century, with some alterations made around 1980. It is constructed of stone rubble and features a hipped slate roof, with some slate-hanging at the right end. At the rear of the left end, there is a large lateral stack with a tapered cap and a drip, which has been heightened in brick. There is also a stack on the right rear side, with a brick shaft and oversailing courses at the cap. The house is arranged in three cells and was probably originally designed as a through-passage plan, although the doorways for the through-passage have been blocked and the entrance has been relocated.

The building is two storeys high and has a three-window range of 20th-century casements with timber lintels. There is a blocked through-passage door with a new door inserted towards the right end, and another blocked doorway to its right, indicating that the original house may have once been divided into two dwellings. The rear of the house features exposed pigeon holes arranged in four tiers above a lean-to with a corrugated asbestos roof. The hall stack has likely been demolished. The left end has a lean-to with a corrugated asbestos roof and a sash window with nine over nine panes above. Inside, there is a chamfered beam with run-out stops in the left end room, and a chamfered and scroll-stopped fireplace lintel with herringbone slatework still visible at the rear of the hearth in the right end room.
