Full Description
PRN 23831
A historic building record was undertaken on Rose Cottage, Old Fendyke, to establish the character, history, dating, form and historic development of the building. The house is a simple square structure, which has undergone three phases of alteration. The original structure probably dates to the late 18th to early 19th century, consisting of a two cell ground floor with hallway. The building was constructed using hand made brick with a slate gabled roof; typical of domestic structures in the rural fenland areas of south-east Lincolnshire. The staircase form is riser and tread housed into string, with an ornate lathe-turned newel and slender square balusters which date from the late 18th to early 19th century. The exterior and interior door surrounds appear to be original fittings of the house, as do the window surrounds and lintels. During the mid 20th century the fireplace surrounds and the doors were replaced, and a single floor brick extension was added to the north-west elevation. A later 20th century brick and glass extension was added to the south-west elevation during the third, and final, building phase. {1}{2}
