The Vineyard Cottage

The Vineyard Cottage is a pair of attached cottages that have been converted into one house. It dates from the mid-19th century and has undergone 20th-century alterations and extensions at the rear. The building is constructed of roughcast stone rubble and features a slate roof with gabled ends. There are roughcast gable end stacks, each with a pair of tall diagonally set shafts and set offs.

The plan originally consisted of two attached single-depth one-room cottages, with adjoining doorways leading to a central stair hall. When the cottages were converted into one house in the 20th century, shallow service rooms were added at the back, along with a wing added to the rear of the right-hand room in the late 20th century. The building is designed in a Tudor style.

The exterior is two storeys high and features a symmetrical arrangement of windows with a 2:1:2 pattern. The centre of the building projects forward with a gable supported by corbels. The recessed centre contains a pair of deeply chamfered doorways with cambered arches and original ledged doors with cover moulds. Above these doors is a small single light window set in a moulded deeply recessed embrasure. To the left and right are 2-light casements; the ground floor windows have ovolo-moulded frames and mullions, while the first floor windows have chamfered frames and mullions. All windows are fitted with diamond leaded panes and iron casements with original hasp handles. The windows are set in deeply moulded embrasures, with hoodmoulds over the ground floor windows and small gables with corbels above the first floor windows.

The interior retains little of the original joinery, as the stairs and roof structure are from the 20th century.
