Description

Ford Cottage and Rose Cottage are a pair of cottages dating from the late 16th to 17th century, with some later alterations from the early 18th century. The taller bay on the left features a timber frame with whitewashed brick infill, partly in a herringbone pattern, and a left gable wall made of whitewashed rubble stone. The second bay is constructed of whitewashed brick at the front and whitewashed rubble and mud at the rear, while the remainder of the structure is rendered and whitewashed. The cottages have thatched roofs, with a half-hip over the left gable. There are three whitewashed rendered chimneys: one to the right of the timber-framed bay, another between the right bays, and a third to the right.

The cottages are one storey with an attic and consist of four bays. The windows are irregular wooden casements, with six on the ground floor. The left bay has a small paired casement below the eaves to the right, situated above a 20th-century door and a gabled porch. The second bay features an old three-light casement beneath the thatch, with a tiled apron. The right bays include dormers with slate aprons and a central 20th-century porch with a flat roof. There is also a similar 20th-century single-storey extension to the right. Inside, there is an ovolo moulded and stopped spine beam in the left bay, and a chamfered spine beam in the second bay.
