Description
Rose Cottage is a symmetrical two-storey, two-window cottage built in the 19th century. It features a roughcast exterior under a slate roof, with roughcast end stacks and raised tile copings. The central entrance has a plain wooden doorcase with a cornice, leading to a wooden door that has chevron boarding. The cottage has small hornless sash windows with flat heads and stone sills, with 12 panes on the ground floor and 9 panes on the first floor. There are no openings on the gable ends.
At the rear, there is a full-height wing that is also roughcast. The south side has a 20th-century three-light metal-framed window on each storey, with the ground floor window offset to the right. The north side features a small lean-to in the left angle and has no openings on the upper storey, along with a single-storey lean-to against the gable end.
The forecourt wall is made of random red sandstone with a rounded coping. There is a narrow entrance to the garden path, with capstones laid directly on the wall, and a small boarded gate with openwork upper panels. The wall continues to the right in front of an adjacent farm and curves around for a short distance to the left, fronting Wood Lane. The interior of the cottage has not been seen as of July 29, 2005.
