Tudor Rose

SX 39 NE CLAWTON CHAPEL ROAD, Clawton

3/13 Tudor Rose -

GV II

Small cottage. Probably C17 origins. Colourwashed rendered cob with corrugated iron roof, formerly thatched, axial stack at right end. The cottage may originally have been part of the inner end of a large C17 house which was divided into a row of 4 cottages probably in the C18. Alternatively, it may have been 1 of a row of small C17 cottages. Single depth plan, 1 1/2-rooms wide with direct entry into a large heated room to the right, the half room is a small unheated service room to the right. 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 2-window front with a front door on the left under a timber lintel. Small 1-light window under a timber lintel lighting the service room to the left, the other windows are 3-light casements, 3 panes per light, the ground floor window right under a timber lintel. Interior Plan intact. No access to roofspace at time of survey (1985), but-roof trusses may be of interest. One of a row of 4 cottages facing the main road through Clawton. 'Tudor Rose' is paired in plan with 'Mazoe' which adjoins at the left and is an unusual survival of a very small 2-room cottage.
