Description

The Vicarage is a vicarage built around 1826, constructed from finely dressed stone with a stone slate roof. It stands two storeys high and features quoins, coped gables with kneelers and stacks, an eaves band, and gutter brackets. The building has a three-bay symmetrical facade facing the churchyard, with a doorway that has monolithic jambs and sashed windows with plain stone surrounds and projecting sills. There are two similar windows on the left-hand return wall. At the rear, there is a doorway with tie stone jambs beneath a tall stair window that has a semi-circular arch, an impost block, and a keystone. To the left, there are two bays of three-light flat-faced mullioned windows with broad mullions and projecting sills, although the first bay has been altered to create a garage doorway.

The Vicarage sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,070 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 86% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 79% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 53 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 94% of listed buildings. Of these, 31 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
