Cathedral House

Cathedral House is a presbytery to the Cathedral Church of St Marie, dating from 1903. It is constructed of red brick with ashlar dressings and has steeply pitched Westmorland slate roofs. The building features two gable and two side wall brick stacks with stone bands and multiple flues, showcasing an eclectic Gothic Revival style.

The exterior includes a plinth, sill bands, and coped and crenellated parapets. The building has three storeys and a window arrangement of three to one. The front facing Norfolk Street features a canted two-storey oriel window with a parapet. There is a central niche with a figure, flanked by a single shouldered window on each side. Beyond these, there are single sash windows with glazing bars and hoodmoulds. Above, the fenestration is similar, with the oriel window having a central blank space.

The central entrance is a moulded pointed arched doorway with a nodding gabled canopy and a door that has an ogee-headed fanlight. On either side of the doorway, there are two small glazing bar sashes with hoods cut into the lintels. To the left, there is a single-storey range with three flat-headed cusped single lancets. To the right, a gable set at an angle features a two-storey canted bay window with four shouldered glazing bar sashes above and four plain sashes below, all under gabled hoodmoulds. Above this bay window, there is a triple glazing bar sash flanked by pilasters that extend into the diaper-work gable peak, topped with traceried gables.

The right return of the building has, to the left, a two-storey canted wooden oriel window with triple glazing bar sashes, flanked by single glazing bar sashes on each floor, the upper ones set in flat-topped through-eaves dormers. Below this oriel window, there are three similar windows, all featuring pointed head surrounds. To the right, there is another range with three windows and two gabled through-eaves dormers. The rear of the building includes a parapeted semicircular stair turret with a four-light cross mullioned window. The interior has not been inspected.
