Description

The outbuilding to the north of the Old Vicarage, built in 1861 and likely designed by James Deason, features snecked stone with tooled ashlar dressings and a graduated Lakeland slate roof. It is a single-storey structure with five narrow bays, including two segmental arches that support boarded double doors, a stable door in a chamfered surround, a six-pane casement, and another stable door in an inserted opening. The building has coped gables on moulded kneelers and a small ridge stack with a chamfered cap. The left side displays a buttress and a slatted gable opening, while the right side has a boarded pitching door in a chamfered surround. The rear elevation facing the street features a pair of blocked slit vents near the left end.

The south yard wall connects the south-west corner of the outbuilding to the north-west corner of the Old Vicarage, featuring a central gateway flanked by low buttresses. The north wall connects to the north-east corner of the outbuilding and extends eastward, stepping in to enclose a former midden, leading to a gateway with a buttress on the left. The coping of the walls steps up to a taller return that links to the east end of the Old Vicarage kitchen wing, with gabled copings throughout.

Originally, the outbuilding housed a coach-house, groom's room, cartshed, stable, and cow byre. The 20th-century outbuildings against the north wall are not of interest.
