Description
No. 12 (Rose Cottage) and No. 14 on Alvington Lane are a pair of cottages that were originally one house, dated 1702. They are built from ham stone coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and feature a triple-angle clay tiled roof between stepped coped gables, likely replacing the original thatch. The cottages have two storeys with an attic and consist of three bays.
The windows are hollow-chamfered mullioned types, with three lights above and four lights below, all set in chamfered recesses. Each window has separate labels above, and there is a continuous label that steps up over the windows and the doorway below. The windows are rectangular and leaded. The lower bay two features a cambered-arched doorway with incised spandrels, inscribed on the lintel with 'L/JG/1702', leading up four steps to a 20th-century door. To the right of bay three, there is a 20th-century doorway in a recess, where the lintel interrupts the continuous label, and further right at mezzanine level, there is a small stairlight.
There is a small hipped-roofed extension with clay pantiles against the east gable, which includes a reclaimed two-light mullioned window. In the main east gable, there are two small 20th-century casement windows in the attic, and the west gable features 20th-century windows. The interiors have not been seen.
