Description
The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage built in 1849 by S.S. Teulon. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features plain and patterned tile roofs. The building has two storeys and an attic, along with a one-storey kitchen wing. The entrance front is asymmetrical, with three bays on the left and one bay for the kitchen wing on the right. The first bay projects and has a projecting stack against a shaped gable with brick copings. There is a gabled one-storey projection at the third bay, which includes a 3/6-pane sash window beneath a shaped gable. A round-headed door is located in the left return, accessed from an open porch with a lean-to roof and pierced splat balustrading. Above the porch is a double-transomed, ovolo-moulded, three-light stair window with a rubbed-brick flat arch, and a 3/6-pane sash window to the right. The eaves feature a corbel table, and there is a two-light roof dormer with a timbered gable. The right end gable has a brick stack. The kitchen wing includes a stepped tripartite window under a coped gable, and a small square projection at the right corner has a pyramidal roof. The rear of the building has a canted one-storey bay with 12-pane sashes and a shaped gable to the right with a projecting stack pierced by a ground-floor window. The left return features a tripartite sash window in a shallow bay and a shaped gable to the right, along with decorative hoppers bearing the initials of Teulon and the builder (RR).
Inside, the stair hall has a two-bay arcade and a cantilevered staircase with a splat balustrade and moulded handrail. There are two marble fireplaces, one of which is located in the rear-left ground floor room beneath a window with mirrored shutters. The original ceilings are subdivided by dowel ribs with bosses, and there are four-panel doors in broad architraves. A plain service stair is also present. A rebuilt single-storey wing to the northwest is not of special interest. Dated and signed drawings, along with specifications and accounts, can be found in the County Archives in Lincoln.
