HISTORY: built on land formerly the property of Hayne family from 1638 when Thomas Hayne bought it from William Snygge; passed by inheritance to Charles Hayne 1750 who cleared it of a mortgage and other encumbrances; in 1755 plans to sell Vineyards to Thomas Omer for building reached advanced stage but not finally realised until indenture of 26 February 1755, Charles Hayne to Thomas Omer, Gent, and Thomas Jelly, Carpenter his trustee, sold Vineyards for building at yearly rent of £50. Belmont constructed on west edge of same ground.
The plot on which the present Vineyards terrace is built is referred to by the name ‘Vineyards’ (or similar archaic variants) throughout its documented history, though it is uncertain when its use for growing vines ceased. Row to north of Countess of Huntingdon's Chapel originally called Harlequin Row because of unusual use of brick and stone in construction.
