Description
The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage built in 1750 for Robert Lerogne, as recorded in the Bedfordshire County Record Office. The building has undergone alterations and extensions in the 19th century. It features colour washed plastered brick with mainly slate roofs, although the rear of the main block has tile roofing. The structure is now T-shaped, with a front block that has two storeys and attics, and rear blocks that are two and one storeys high.
The front elevation is symmetrical, showcasing a central four-panel front door set in a moulded surround, topped with a traceried fanlight and a flat bracketed hood. On either side of the door are two-storey canted bays, each containing one sash window with glazing bars on each floor. Above the door, there is a similar sash window on the first floor. The roof features two recessed dormers with two-light leaded casements and has a mansard design with gable end brick stacks. The 19th-century rear block is of double-pile plan with a two-span roof and includes sash windows with glazing bars and gable end brick stacks.
