Description

Vicarage Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that was extended, had its roof raised, and was re-fenestrated in the early 19th century. It is constructed of irregular bond plum brick and features a Welsh slate roof with three brick chimneys. The building likely follows a lobby-entry plan and has a two-storey, five-bay front. There is a dentil brick band at the first floor of the original house. The lower windows are rectangular, small-pane iron casements with intersecting tracery and four hinged panels, while the upper windows are similar but have four-centred arched heads. The third bay includes a half-glazed door under a concrete lintel, and similar windows are found on the sides and rear of the farmhouse. The interior has not been inspected.
