Rose Cottage

Rose Cottage is an 18th-century cottage with 20th-century renovations. It is constructed of whitewashed rendered cob, with some brickwork to the rear, and has a thatched roof gabled at both ends. There are end stacks, with the left-hand stack projecting. Originally, the cottage may have been a two-room house with a central passage and a heated room on each side. A two-storey rear addition was later built, and a thatched, single-room addition was added to the right-hand end under a lower roofline, hipped at the right end. The front of the cottage is symmetrical, with three windows and a central 20th-century front door sheltered by a flat-roofed 20th-century porch. The windows are late 19th-century, four-pane sashes. Inside, the right-hand room has a chamfered cross beam with ogee stops and an open fireplace with granite jambs and a timber lintel. The fireplace in the left-hand room has been blocked. The rear right room features an open fireplace with a timber lintel, jambs made of brick and stone rubble, and a bread oven.
