Description

The Vicarage, dated 1901, is a two-storey building with an attic, constructed from red brick with stone dressings. The front features two projecting gabled bays, with the right bay displaying stone coping and a mullioned transomed window set in a keyed surround, which includes a carved armorial panel. In the center, there is a six-light wood mullioned and transomed window, while smaller sash windows are found elsewhere. The doorway is located on the right side, framed by a moulded keyed stone surround with a depressed arched head and a scrolled hood mould. A base dormer is positioned below the eaves, and the building has brick stacks adorned with carved stone bands, topped with a tiled roof.
