Description

Vectis Cottage, built around 1830, is a two-storey building located on Circular Road in Seaview. It features crazed rubble construction with rendered rusticated quoins. The low pitch hipped slate roof has wide eaves. The cottage has two recessed sash windows with intact glazing bars, plain rendered surrounds, and lintels with block sills. The central door, originally a six-panel design, now has four glazed panels and is set within a square-headed recess with a plain rendered surround.
