Vine Cottage

A pair of estate cottages, now combined into a single house, was likely built around 1800 and significantly remodelled between 1820 and 1840. More recent alterations occurred in the late 20th century. The building is constructed of brick with ashlar stone details, and a pantile roof, including a catslide (low-sloping) section at the rear. A central brick chimney stack rises from the ridge, featuring coped double flues. The property is two storeys high, originally with a two-window front. A reglazed gabled dormer, incorporating mock timber framing, sits above the left-hand side, while a single casement window is positioned to the right. On the ground floor, a mullioned window with two lights is accompanied on the right by a larger two-light sash window with glazing bars, both framed by stone surrounds. To either side of these windows are blocked doorway surrounds, one rendered and chamfered. The left-hand return displays a 20th-century first-floor window, and below it, a two-light stone mullioned window is flanked to the left by a stepped ashlar buttress. These cottages were remodelled in a picturesque style during the 1820s and 1840s by Gregory Gregory, who was the Lord of the Manor of Harlaxton. The building is included on the list for its contribution to the wider group value of the area.
