Description
The Vicarage is a 17th-century building with an addition constructed around 1870. It is believed to have a timber frame beneath a roughcast exterior. The left wing is built of regular coursed lias stone with ashlar dressings. The building has tile gabled roofs and stone and brick stacks. It is arranged in an L-shape. The mid-19th century wing is in a Gothic style, rising two storeys and an attic, with a roof dormer to the 17th-century range. The entrance to the 19th-century wing features a stone Gothic arch and double, half-glazed doors. The 17th-century range has two 19th-century casement windows on each floor. The 19th-century wing contains plate glass sash windows with stone surrounds; these are paired and segmentally headed on the ground floor and have a blind trefoil head and lozenge within a round arch on the first floor, with a smaller similar window above the entrance door. The 19th-century wing has a half-hipped gable. The garden side has a gable with pierced Gothic bargeboards and decorative timber framing, together with a Gothic stone canted bay; the remainder of this side is roughcast. Inside the 17th-century range are moulded and chamfered ceiling beams and a mid-19th century dog-leg staircase.
