Description
Vine Cottage is an early 19th century pair of stuccoed and painted brick houses located on the west side of London Road. The houses feature a central stack and have one recessed sash window on each floor, with a 6/6 configuration. The doors are adorned with wrought iron canopies that have concave hipped roofs, supported by an openwork band on scroll brackets. Number 101, on the south side, has a six-panel French door and an enclosed porch, along with louvred shutters on the first floor. Number 103 has boarded shutters on the first floor and has been extended in the 19th century over a segmental archway, featuring a matching window on the first floor.
