Description
The lychgate, likely from the 19th century, is located at the north-east corner of the Vicarage and is connected to a lean-to bay on the ground floor, which serves as the inside wall. The outer wall is made of painted brick, and it features a ridge tile roof with a decorative timber frame and plaster gable ends. This lychgate is part of a group that includes All Saints Church, the Vicarage, and the Church of England School with Clarecott on Pound Street.
