Description
Rose Cottage is a farmhouse located on Cropton High Street, dating from the late 18th century but incorporating a building from 1695, with late 19th-century alterations. It was built for Nicholas Cheeseman upon his marriage to Dorothy Horsley. The structure is made of coursed limestone rubble with quoins, topped by a pantile roof and featuring brick stacks. It has a 3-cell, hearth-passage plan and is two stories high with a three-window front.
The entrance is located at the center right, featuring a 20th-century door beneath an overlight in a painted quoined opening, which has a lintel inscribed with "1695 MEMENTO MORI NC." The windows throughout the building are 4-pane sashes with painted stone sills and painted lintels. To the left of the first-floor windows, there is a triangular sunk panel that displays the word "ROSE" in relief. The gables are coped and have shaped kneelers, with chimney stacks located at the end and right of center.
