Description

Rose and Cross Cottages, located at No 2, Church Lane, are three attached cottages dating from the 17th and 18th centuries, with some alterations made in the 20th century. The cottages are constructed from roughly squared, coursed stone, except for Rose Cottage, which features better squared stone. The roofs are covered with stone slates facing High Street and concrete tiles on Church Lane.

The building has an 'L' plan layout, with four windows facing High Street and 2 and a half to 1 and a half storeys. The Church Lane elevation has a gable and four bays, with 1 and a half storeys. All windows are leaded lights, except for the dormers, and there are hoodmoulds above all ground floor openings.

On High Street, Rose Cottage is to the left and features a three-light mullioned window, a late 20th-century half-glazed door set up two stone steps with a Tudor arch and deep stone lintel. Above this, there is a late 20th-century three-light mullioned window, flanked by two gabled dormers with two-light iron casements. The left gable has a parapet and a ridge chimney at each end with a moulded cap.

To the right is Cross Cottage, which has two three-light mullioned windows and a two-light mullioned dormer above. This section also features a parapet gable with a cross-gablet apex at the right end.

On the Church Lane side, the left gable has a boarded door up two concrete steps with a Tudor arch but no hoodmould, and a single-light window to the right. Above, there is a two-light mullioned window with a hoodmould, and a small two-light Medieval window in the gable, with a blind quatrefoil set in a single stone that has been reset.

To the right is No 2, which has all early 20th-century windows, including four-light mullions and a boarded door up one concrete step with a Tudor arch. There are also two single-light windows and a slit to the right, with a vertical joint just before the corner. Above the eaves, there is a chimney on the left with a moulded cap, and two dormers featuring two-light and three-light mullioned windows with hoodmoulds. A ridge chimney is located at the left door.

The cottages are listed principally for their group value.
