Description

Vine Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century. It features a timber frame with whitewashed brick and render infill, while the right gable is completely rendered and whitewashed. The roof is covered with old tiles and is half-hipped to the right. A whitewashed brick chimney with three attached shafts is located between the left bays, and there is a smaller chimney to the right. The house has two storeys and three bays. The windows are 20th-century paired barred wooden casements, with the central first-floor window having an additional light, and single lights aligned with the chimney. There is a board door to the right of the centre bay, which has a flat wooden hood supported by brackets. At the rear, there is a lean-to. Inside, the cottage features a stop-chamfered spine beam in the centre bay.
