The Vicarage

The Vicarage is a schoolmaster’s house, originally dating to 1903, with a front extension added in 1935 by W.E. Haslock of Middlesbrough. It is now used as a vicarage. The building is constructed of dressed sandstone with plain clay tiled roofs, stone gable copings and block kneelers, and is set on an L-shaped plan. It is built in a Vernacular Jacobean revival style.

The building is two storeys high and originally comprised three bays, but two bays on the right are now hidden behind a projecting gabled extension one bay wide. Access is from the left return of the extension. It has chamfered-mullioned windows with leaded-light iron casements, with three-light windows on the ground floor and two-light windows on the first floor. A half-dormer with a window is positioned over the left bay. Slit vents are found in the gables. A tablet between the floors on the left side bears raised lettering: "A.J.D. 1903". The roofs are hipped and gabled, with exposed rafter ends.

The left return features a boarded and studded door set within a stop-chamfered surround. A recessed panel inscribed "A.D. 1935" and a hoodmould are located above the door. The right return has a corniced external stack to the right of three stepped buttresses in the second bay. A gabled third bay and a half-dormer are situated over the right-end bay. A bell is suspended from an iron bracket at the right end on the first floor.

Inside, the original lobby features a segment-headed doorway with a roll-moulded surround and a giant keystone. Panelled doors are within moulded wood surrounds, and the open-well staircase has moulded stick balusters, a moulded handrail, fluted newels with cornice caps, a beaded closed string with a cornice. The ground floor has moulded ceiling cornices. A single-storey outhouse range adjoins the rear of the building.
