Description

St Barnabas' Vicarage is a vicarage built around 1885, likely designed by the architectural firm Austin & Paley. It is constructed of brown brick and features a gabled tile roof. The building has two storeys and consists of four bays, with a three-bay return on the west side. It has a projecting weathered plinth and a moulded sill band. The entrances are arched, with ledged and battened part-glazed doors for both the front entrance and the kitchen, each featuring a mono-pitch door hood supported by brackets and corbels.

The kitchen includes a square bay window with a mono-pitch roof. The windows throughout the building are timber casements, either two or three-light, mostly with leaded lights. Some windows are set in stone mullion and transom frames and have cusped ogee heads at the first floor level. Above the first floor, there are three-course weathered brick sills and decorative diaper work. The gable barge boards are adorned with high collars and feature two to four vertical panels with trefoil heads. The chimney stacks are tall, with one-brick-wide pilasters spaced at one-brick intervals. The garden front showcases an octagonal bay window at the southwest corner, a pointed two-sided bay, and an oriel window.
