Description
Wilton Farmhouse is a 19th-century vicarage, built in 1846, possibly by Ignatius Bonomi, and is now a private house. The building features chevron-tooled sandstone with chamfered quoins and has Welsh slate roofs with stone ridge copings. It is two storeys high with a basement and has a three-bay entrance front, with a one-bay service wing on the right. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door set within a Tuscan doorcase. The windows are sash style with glazing bars, framed by architraves and plain sills, although the middle window is blind. There is a plain band between the floors and a modillion eaves cornice. The roof is shallow-pitched and hipped, topped with four corniced stacks.
The slightly recessed service wing has a four-panel door on the left and one window on each floor, with the first-floor window located in a half dormer. The left side of the building has three similar ground-floor windows and two first-floor windows, one of which is blocked behind a sash. The garden front has three bays, with ground-floor windows beneath floating cornices on consoles, while the right-hand first-floor window is also blocked behind a sash. The basement windows feature six-pane sashes. The service wing includes a round-headed stair window with a raised surround, keystone, and impost bands.
Inside, the farmhouse has six-panel doors in architraves, moulded ceiling cornices, and panelled shutters on both floors. The south-west room on the ground floor boasts a Classical fireplace surround with fluted pilasters, a panelled frieze, a dentil cornice, and scrolled wings. The dogleg staircase features turned balusters and fluted newels with corniced caps, while the service wing has its own dogleg staircase with stick balusters and a handrail that is ramped at the ends.
