Description

Rose Cottage is an 18th-century building of two storeys and an attic, with three windows and three dormers. It is constructed with grey headers and red brick dressings, featuring quoins, a string course, and a modillion eaves cornice. The roof is tiled, and the first-floor windows retain their original glazing bars. The ground floor has two bays with a porch between. The porch contains a reset original doorway, which has an ogee-shaped fanlight and a six-panelled door.
