Description

Grape Vine Cottages are a pair of attached cottages dating from the 18th century to early 19th century. They are timber framed and plastered, with side walls made of red brick in Flemish bond, and are topped with a roof of handmade red clay pantiles. The cottages are arranged in a single range facing southeast and feature a central stack. At the rear, there is an outshut that may be original. The buildings are one storey high with attics, and they have two 19th-century casement windows, along with two additional casements in gabled dormers, which are also roofed with handmade red clay tiles. There are two plain boarded doors, and the left return wall is partly plastered over brick.
