Rose Cottage

Rose Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th or early 18th century, located on City Bank Road in Cirencester. It is constructed of coursed squared limestone rubble with a stone slate roof and a brick ridge stack positioned centrally, with the ridge approximately 0.5 metres higher to the left of the stack. The house is single-storey with an attic, and has a two-window front. The ground floor has two two-light timber casements with 20th-century decorative leading in plain reveals, each with an exposed timber lintel. Two hipped dormers feature similar windows. A gabled timber porch has a 20th-century door with twelve glazed panels in a plain reveal and an exposed timber lintel. An exposed timber lintel on the left side suggests a window opening that has been blocked. On the left side of the building, there is a 20th-century two-light timber casement in a plain reveal with an exposed timber lintel at ground floor level. The interior of the property has not been inspected. It is believed that Rose Cottage, along with No.12 City Bank Road, represents surviving elements of Langley’s Mill buildings.
