Description

Rozel is a house dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble banded with ironstone, topped with a plain-tile roof from the 20th century and features brick stacks at the ends. The house has a two-unit plan, is two storeys tall with an attic, and has a three-window range. The central entrance consists of a part-glazed door with a timber lintel. On the ground and first floors, there are three-light casement windows on the left and right, and a two-light casement window in the centre of the first floor, all featuring timber lintels. A semi-circular bread oven projection is located on the left side elevation, which has a ridged stone roof. Inside, the house has chamfered spine beams.
