The Forest Hill Cottage is a historic cottage at 22 Windsor Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. The 1 1/2 story wood frame house was built in 1860, and is one of the city's best examples of Carpenter Gothic design. Its asymmetrical massing has varied steeply pitched gables, with narrow arched windows, and board-and-batten siding. The semi-octagonal porch is a later 19th century addition. The house is a near mirror image of an adjacent house; its first owner, Luther Ross, was a patternmaker at the Court Mill.[2]

The cottage was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
