Description
Rose Cottage is a cottage dating from around 1700, located on Whittall Street, Kings Sutton. It is built of limestone and ironstone rubble with a thatched roof and brick stacks. The cottage has a single-unit plan and originally comprised one storey and one bay. To the left is a doorway with a wooden lintel, a gabled thatched hood, and a 20th-century plank door. A renewed 4-light stone mullioned window is situated to the right. A first-floor window has three lights, wooden frames, a wooden lintel and leaded lights. The interior is reportedly characterised by an open fireplace and a ceiling with chamfered beams.
