Although the address of this property is No.86, Rose Hill Street the main pedestrian entrance appears to be here on Wilfred Street. This Jacobean-style house (c.1822) is the second property to have been built on this site and this one is thought to have been designed by Joseph Strutt, the Arboretum benefactor. The west gable is in Flemish style and the south gable sports a large sundial set into a stone surround. The far end elevation overlooks Rose Hill Recreation Ground, that borders the Arboretum. In Rose Hill Street there is a large yard, perhaps used for coaches and stabling in the past. As "Rosehill House" it may now be being used as a residential care facility?
