Description
Rose Cottage is a house built in the early 18th century, with alterations from the 19th century and restoration in the 20th century. It is constructed of coursed gritstone rubble and features a pantile roof with a stone slate eaves course. The building has two storeys and three bays, with quoins at the corners. It follows a lobby-entry plan, with a six-panel door, where the top two panels are glazed, located between the second and third bays, beneath the remains of a keyed lintel.
On the ground floor, there are 24-pane, three-light, side-sliding sash windows in the first and second bays, and a similar 16-pane, two-light sash window to the right. The first floor has windows with 18 panes and 12 panes, all of which have keyed lintels and remnants of quoined jambs. There is a rendered end stack on the left and a ridge stack opposite the entrance.
Inside, there is a large brick inglenook fireplace opposite the entrance, with ceiling beams and a cellar beneath the south room. The house was originally built with a 17th-century plan of three rooms and a lobby entry; the right-hand room served as an unheated store or sleeping room, while the left room had a fireplace added in the 19th century when the roof was raised. It is likely that the lintels from the ground-floor windows were repurposed for the higher first-floor windows at that time.
