The kitchen of Rose Cottage was butcher's shop. The cottages were built around 1828. Joseph Pain, who married Ann Flower, built the cottages. Different members of the Pain family lived here in the 19th century.

In 1841 Joseph Pain was described as a shopkeeper and Jacob Pain a pork butcher. Jacob Pain continued as a pork butcher until at least 1872. The deeds of the house confirm that Jacob Pain lived in the middle house of Rose Cottages.
