Description

The Vicarage, built in 1789 by John Langwith at a cost of £801 12s. Od., is a two-storey building with attics and basements. It features a brick construction with a pantile roof, a stone basement, and stone bands between the storeys and at the first-floor cill level. The façade includes five windows on the first floor and three hipped dormers. The entrance is marked by a doorcase with pilasters, brackets, and a pediment, flanked by three-light Venetian windows with glazing bars. The 19th-century wings have been demolished, and part of the roof has been retiled. No interior features remain. A photograph of the building is held in the National Monuments Record.

Local climate

The Vicarage sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 81% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 88% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 36 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
