Old Vicarage

The Old Vicarage is a vicarage that has been converted into a private house. It dates from the late 18th century to early 19th century, with a late 19th-century addition. The building is constructed of ashlar and dressed stone, topped with a Welsh slate roof and has an irregular plan. It stands two storeys tall with an L-shaped entrance side. The older section, located on the right, is designed in the Gothick style and features three bays, including a slightly projecting canted centre bay. The doorway is situated in a later 19th-century porch over the left bay. The windows are pointed-arched with intersecting glazing bars, and the gabled roof has flat coping. There is an old brick ridge stack and a late 19th-century corniced end stack. To the left is a former service wing that includes 19th and 20th-century windows, and it has a gabled roof with early 19th-century corniced end stacks. The garden side features the original building on the left and a later 19th-century two-bay projection on the right. Inside, there is an impressive late 17th-century oak staircase from Durham, which has a closed string adorned with festoons and masks, alternating twisted and acanthus bud balusters, a boldly moulded handrail, and panelled newels with ball finials. The landing balustrade includes a string course with cherubs' heads and bunches of flowers, along with shields in festoons.
