Vines Croft

Vines Croft is a house located on Crow Lane in Rochester, likely dating from the 17th century but significantly renewed in the 19th century. The structure is timber-framed with a brick underbuilding and features decorative tile hanging on the front. It has a Kent tile gable-end roof and tall brick ridge stacks on both the main range and the rear wing. The house is two storeys high with a dormered attic.

The front of the house has an irregular arrangement of three windows, with three hipped dormers that contain two-light casements with diamond leading. The first floor features three windows, including two and three-light designs, with leaded panes on the right-hand windows. The ground floor has a single 16-pane sash window with external shutters to the left of the deeply recessed half-glazed door.

The right-hand side of the house shows some exposed framing, and the gable wall has a Yorkshire sash window on the first floor with a horned sash and margin panes. At the rear, there is a large gabled dormer, with the upper floor also tile hung like the front. The rear of the house has various extensions from different periods. The interior has not been inspected.
