Vine Cottage

Vine Cottage is a farmhouse that was later converted into three cottages and is now a single house. It likely dates from the 16th century, with improvements made in the 17th century. The building was subdivided, enlarged, and modernized in the early 19th century, and then reunited around 1960. It is constructed of plastered cob on rubble footings, with stone and cob stacks topped with 19th-century brick, and features a thatched roof that has been patched with rush mats.

Originally, it was designed as a three-room-and-through-passage house, with an inner room at the southwest end, which is to the left of the southeast-facing front. The house has two storeys, with gable-end stacks and a large lateral stack made of volcanic stone that projects to the rear of the hall. Internal divisions are also made of cob. The inner room, located at the left end, was rebuilt during the early 19th century subdivision and has a rear block extension with a new roof at a higher level.

The front of the house has an irregular seven-window layout, with four windows on the first floor. The windows are primarily 19th-century two-light casements, most of which have glazing bars, and hornless sashes, with six panes above six panes. The main entrance features a 20th-century wooden trellis porch with a low-pitched roof, while the door to the service room at the right end has a 20th-century porch made of corrugated iron. There is also a door at the rear leading to the former inner room cottage. Most of the early features inside are concealed by superficial 19th-century modernizations, but 17th-century chamfered and scroll-stopped cross-beams are visible in the hall. The roof is currently inaccessible. The building was formerly known as Westaway Cottages.
