Description
The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage built in the early 19th century. It is constructed of rendered brick and features a slate roof with chimney stacks on both gables and numerous flues. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a parapet that has shaped crenellations above a moulded cornice. The attic is lit by a flat-roofed dormer that contains three 16-pane sash windows, which have thicker central vertical glazing bars and a simple cornice. On the ground floor, there are two square bay windows and French windows with hipped roofs. The parapets are similar to the one above the former central porch, which now has a 12-pane sash window and a 2-pane sash window to the left. The entrance is now located on the right return front. This was the Vicarage where the Reverend Robert Francis Kilvert lived during the last two years of his life, from 1877 to 1879.
