Description
The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage built around 1820 for Reverend Thomas Cave Winsom. It features squared stone of near-ashlar quality, with an ashlar band and eaves cornice, topped by a purple slate roof with yellow brick stacks.
The west (garden) elevation has two storeys and three symmetrical bays. It includes a plinth and a tooled band at the first floor. There is a central blocked doorway, with a full-length small-paned sash window in the left bay and 20th-century small-paned glazed doors with an overlight in the right bay, accessed by moulded steps on each side. The first floor displays 16-pane sashes with slightly projecting sills and a moulded eaves cornice. The gables are coped, and the end stacks have been rebuilt, with the left stack resting on an old base.
On the east elevation, there is a left-of-centre four-panel door with a patterned fanlight, framed by attached Tuscan piers and an open-pedimented hood. To the right is an arched stair window holding a 12-pane sash with an intersecting head, and at the left end, there is another 12-pane sash. The first floor has a similar window, with an early 20th-century round window to the left, and at the right end, there are 12-pane sashes, with the lower one being renewed.
Inside, the property features six-panel doors, door surrounds, and shutters, all with beaded mouldings. The sitting room includes a fireplace with a wood surround supported by fluted Ionic columns, a balustraded mantel, and an egg-and-dart cornice. The dog-leg open-string staircase has stick balusters, moulded newels, a moulded handrail, and carved tread ends, with the stairhead featuring a panelled arch, cornice, and ceiling rose.
