4/161 Rose Cottage and No 2 Rose Cottage
- and including the adjoining
outbuilding
GV II

Pair of cottages (now 1 house) adjoining probably wash house, now a cottage and small
outbuilding probably a wash house, later an earth closet. Circa late C18 or early
C19. Painted stone rubble and cob walls with slate sills and wooden lintels.
Corrugated iron roof, formerly thatched, with brick chimneys over the gable ends.
Plan : originally a pair of single cell cottages with front entrances towards the
middle and each with a small lobby and straight flight stair behind. Extended soon
after with a single storey building now with 2 small rooms at the left hand end and
still later a small single storey outbuilding was added adjoining the front right
handi corner and probably at about the same time each original cottage was extended at
thee rear with a shallow outshut for a back kitchen with a small chamber over. At
some time the right hand gable end has been rebuilt at 1st floor level.
Single storey and 2 storeys. The original 2 window part is 2 storeys. Originally
symmetrical with 2 doorways towards the middle, the right hand one now blocked. A
lean-to porch is a small conservatory on the left hand side and unlit on the right.
The 4-panel door has flush-beaded bottom panels and fielded round-headed top panels.
4-pane horned sashes to the ground floor openings and circa early C19 16-pane sashes
above. The single storey cottage, left, has doorway towards the left and C20 window
in probably enlarged openings left and right. The outbuilding has a small C19 12-
pane casement window at the front and doorway at the left hand gable end.
Interior of the original part has a large fireplace or chimney breast in each room
and the original bowtell moulded ceiling beams at the front. Probably the original
roof structures (not seen).
This is an early example of a pair of probably miners' cottages and substantially
unaltered since the C19.
