Description

The Presbytery of St Mary's Church, built in 1864 by Edward Welby Pugin, is a two-storey structure with three bays, located on Church Road in Woolton. It features rock-faced stone with ashlar dressings and a slate roof adorned with fishscale bands. The ground floor includes a tripartite window in the first bay, a segmental window in the central bay, and a canted bay window at the end. The first-floor end bays have windows topped with pointed tympana that are pierced by quatrefoils, while the central window is set within a gablet. To the left, a corridor connects the presbytery with St Mary's Church. The building has four bays with windows consisting of three cusped lights. A central gabled entrance and a ridge dormer with a pitched roof are present at the right-hand end. The presbytery is included for its group value with the church.
