Description
Wylam Old Vicarage is a house, formerly a vicarage, built in 1886, likely by F.R. Johnson. The structure is made of snecked rubble with ashlar surrounds and features a Lakeland slate roof. It has two and three storeys, with the garden front displaying three bays. The central bay contains a half-glazed Victorian door with a chamfered surround, flanked on the left by a small two-light window. Above this is a large three-light staircase window with two transoms and cusped heads to the lights. The left bay has a three-light window below and a two-light window above, topped with a gabled dormer. The right bay is cross-gabled and features a canted bay window on the ground floor.
The entrance front also consists of three bays, with a slightly projecting gabled right bay that has an ashlar embattled bay window. The central bay has a lean-to porch that is glazed and half-timbered at the base. The roofs are steeply pitched with projecting eaves, and all gables have plain bargeboards with collar beams and studding. Stone corniced ridge stacks complete the design.
