Description

NRHE data transfer: The Vine (PH) [NAT]. <1> The Vine Hotel, NE of (30), is of two storeys with attics; it was built late in the 16th century on an L-shaped plan with the wings extending towards the SW and NW. The SE front has three gables; the NE gable has old brackets, and the middle gable projects and has a moulded bressumer with two shaped and carved brackets. The central chimney-stack is original and has four octagonal brick shafts, apparently rebuilt, on a square base with a moulded capping. Inside the building, in the upper storey of the NW wing, is a stop-chamfered tie-beam, probably part of a king-post truss. <2>
