Description

St. Mary's House is a house that has been converted into a presbytery. It dates from the 17th century and was altered and extended in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of coursed squared and dressed stone with a tiled roof. It features verge parapets on corbelled kneelers at the left end and has end stacks. The original 17th-century front has two storeys and three windows. The 19th-century casements are set in original chamfered reveals, and there is a small circular opening in a square reveal on the first floor to the right. In the centre of the ground floor, there is a 19th-century hipped roof bay window. To the right, there is a brick addition with a similar eaves line but a lower roof pitch, which includes one window with a bay that matches the earlier described window. The entrance is located to the left of the brick wing, adjacent to the 17th-century part, and features a hipped porch. The left end gable has a blind 17th-century opening with a label above it.
