Description
Rosary Cottage, along with the garden wall to the west, dates from the 16th and 17th centuries and has been restored. The building is two and a half storeys tall, with a ground floor made of rubble and a first floor that is roughcast, likely over a timber frame. It features a tiled roof with a gabled dormer to the right of the center and two end chimneys, one of which is made of ashlar and has a cornice. The roof extends as a pentise over the ground floor on each side of a small three-light casement window. On the ground floor, there is a modern three-light mullion window with a label to the left, a ledged door to the right of center, and a two-light chamfered mullion window in a rebated surround to the right. The west front has a mullioned window on the first floor and 19th-century windows on the ground floor. There is a two-storey extension to the south featuring Yorkshire sashes on the first floor, a door, and a bay window on the ground floor under a hood, topped with a Cotswold stone roof. A small garden to the west is enclosed by a roughly semi-circular rubble wall about four feet high, with flagstones on the edge for coping. This wall returns to the south and connects with the wall of Island House. The houses and garden walls of the Square are essential to the character of Chipping Campden High Street.
