This white commemorative plaque records: Butter Hill, Rose Hill and The Rotunda. The semi-detached house at the rear, Rose Hill House and Butter Hill House, were once one, known from the 17th century as the Great House on Butter Hill. It was divided in 1832 and this Rotunda built against the front wall as an auction room. The arch was also constructed and leads to Rose Hill, Dorking's first residential estate.

Butter Hill, once known as the Great House from the 17th century, was a significant local landmark divided in 1832, with the Rotunda added as an auction room, marking changes in property use and development in Dorking.
