Description
This is an early 19th-century detached house, formerly known as Rose Cottage, with a rear range dating back to the 18th century or earlier. The house is built of whitewashed stone rubble, with the first floor at the front covered in slate. It has a slate roof with gabled ends. The main facade has three bays, featuring sash windows with glazing bars. The ground floor includes French windows and a central doorway, leading to a panelled door with reveals, now protected by a 20th-century wooden glazed porch. Chimney stacks of stone rubble are situated at the gable ends.
The house has a double-depth plan, incorporating a parallel range at the rear that is approximately from the 18th century or earlier. This rear range has an external chimney stack and a round-headed attic window in the gable end. Flanking the main house are screen walls from the early 19th century, constructed of stone rubble with stone coping, rising to a high tent-shaped parapet topped with a flat-topped finial. Each screen wall contains a small, triangular-headed doorway.
