Description
Rose Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 16th to early 17th century, with some parts demolished and a 20th-century addition. It is constructed from red sandstone random rubble and features a thatched roof that is half hipped to the right. The facade includes a large external stepped stack. The cottage retains two cells of what may have originally been a three-cell and cross passage plan, along with a single-storey 20th-century addition at the rear. It stands one and a half storeys high and has two dormers to the left of the external stack; the inner dormer has steeply chamfered mullions that have been modified from a four-light window to a tripartite casement. The ground floor has two-light casements and a similar window on one bay of the right return. The entrance is located at the rear. Although the interior was not viewed, it is reported to contain two pairs of jointed crucks, stop-chamfered beams with step and run-out stops, and evidence suggesting that the building originally extended beyond the current half hipped gable end.
