The Vines, Oxford

The Vines is a house on Pullens Lane, Headington, a suburb in east Oxford, England.

It was the first house to be built on the west side of the lane, on land that was originally owned by the Morrell family, local brewers.

In 1948, the Vineyard was purchased by the United Oxford Hospitals, who renamed it to be Pollock House after its last owner.

The house was renamed to The Vines, is now occupied by Scholarship & Christianity in Oxford (SCIO), the United Kingdom centre of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU).

Close by, also in Pullens Lane, is Cotuit Hall, part of EF International Academy and previously one of the halls of residence at Oxford Brookes University.
