Description

The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage, now a house, dating from 1704 to 1707. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with a plain tiled roof, brick coped tumbled gables, kneelers, and two tall brick gable stacks. The building is arranged as a T-plan, with two stories and attic accommodation. The front has seven bays, a first floor band, and a dogtooth eaves course. A central 20th-century half-glazed door with a fanlight, set within a wooden surround with fretwork frieze and head and reel moulding, is flanked by three glazing bar sash windows. Above, there are seven similar windows, all with brick segmental heads. Three gabled dormers are set into the roof.

The entrance hall features a flagged floor. The sitting room has full-height panelling, an eared overmantle, a contemporary matching fire surround, and a dogleg staircase with turned balusters. The first floor includes rooms with full-height panelling incorporating bolection moulded panels, a deep cornice, and fireplaces with eared and bolection moulded surrounds. An upper drawing room has full-length panelling with semi-circular headed niches flanking the staircase.
