Description
Roselea is a cottage built in 1847 by F. O'Connor for the National Co-operative Land Company, with some alterations made in the 20th century. The structure features random rubble walls that are faced with render and lined to resemble ashlar, topped with a slate roof. It has a three-room front with a slightly projecting center and is one room deep, with a rear wing on the right that includes a part rear lean-to, making it a single storey.
The cottage has a plinth and a large, half-glazed, gabled timber porch that leads to a fully-glazed front door. There are single-pane iron casements on either side of the door, along with a dumb-bell ventilator in the gable above. The bargeboards are plain, and there are two tight iron casements in the wings on each side, all of which are mid to late 20th-century windows. The roof is hipped, with chimneys located at the ends and center rear.
Roselea forms a group with other Chartist cottages and is listed mainly for its historical and sociological significance.
