Rose Cottage in West Street
Description
Front elevation of Rose Cottage, 80 West Street, Carshalton. A detached house which is Grade II* listed, listing number 1065640 and located within Sub Area B of the Carshalton Village Conservation Area. The house is a seventeenth-century build with a nineteenth-century facade. An ancient well remains in the garden. The house is said to have appeared in the Haunted Houses of London, by Elliott O’Donnell, a book published in 1909. Rose Cottage is reportedly haunted by a young woman who stands by the fireplace. Louise Gasperelli, who lived at the house during the 1970s and 1980s claimed to have experienced ghostly experiences in certain rooms of the house. In 1860 parts of the house’s extensive grounds were given up for the building of Carshalton railway station. There is a school sign on the pavement. St Mary’s Catholic Nursery and Infants’ School is nearby on West Street.
