Vancouver includes a plan of a cottage built at Oldridge Wood. It was built by John Prawle for Mr Sillifant of Coombe near Crediton. The two storey cottage has two rooms on each floor. The front door, in the centre of the front elevation, opens into the kitchen, the larger of the two rooms on the ground floor. It has a fireplace and oven projecting from the back wall. The stairs to the first floor rise at the end of the dividing wall between the kitchen and the adjoining room, the 'shop'.
