ASHPRINGTON SX85NW Cherry Trees, Rosalee 6/14 and Rosalee Cottage

GV II

Range of 3 estate cottages, probably converted from one house. Probably C17, converted into cottages in circa mid C19. Local stone rubble with red rick window arches. Asbestos slate roof with gabled-ended main range and hipped roof over rear wing. Rendered gable end stacks and projecting rear lateral stack with rendered shaft. Plan: The original plan is 4 rooms in the main single depth range with a stairhall at the centre serving the left hand 2-room plan cottage (Cherry Trees) which has a gable end stack for the left end room and a rear lateral stack (now axial) serving both the right hand room and Rosalee Cottage in the later wing behind. The right had cottage (Rosalee) occupies the 2 right hand rooms of the main range, its left had room has rear lateral stack possibly with an integral staircase and the right hand room is heated from a gable end stack. As the interior was not inspected the plan of the original house in uncertain. It may have been 3 rooms and a through or cross passage, the lower end to the left where the ground level is slightly lower, but the front wall at this end appears to have been rebuilt so there is no external evidence for a cross or through-passage at this end. Exterior: storeys, long asymmetrical 7-window range. C19 2-light casements with glazing bars; some with side lights containing sashes, an unusual feature. The left hand windows of Cherry Trees to the left have been replaced by C20 plastic casements and the sill of the central first floor window has been lowered. All the windows are in their C19 openings with red brick cambered arches and some of the ground floor windows have slate dripstones above. 2 doorway to the left of centre and at the right hand end of the front with C19 (Cherry Trees) and C20 (Rosalee) panelled doors and C20 open porches with wooden shingle roofs. Interior: not inspected but may retain its c19 joinery. The lateral stack at the back of Rosalee probably has concealed a large fireplace and an adjacent newel staircase. Roof: some of the early structure may survive. Ashprington was the estate village of Sharpham House (qv) and this row of estate worker's cottages was created from what was probably originally a farmhouse.
