Description

Trinity House, formerly known as The Vicarage, is a house that dates back to 1781, as indicated by a plaque on the southeast elevation. It was built by Samuel Whitbread I. The building is constructed of red brick and features hipped old clay tile roofs. It has a double-pile plan with a recessed central block on the southeast elevation and stands two storeys tall.

The northwest elevation has a symmetrical facade with a central doorway that is accessed by four stone steps. This doorway features a part-glazed door framed by Roman Doric pilasters, an entablature with a triglyph frieze, and a modillion cornice. Both floors on this elevation have four flush sash windows set under flat arches, with pointed arched glazing bars. The two windows flanking the door are narrower than the others.

On the northeast elevation, there is a large two-storeyed semi-circular bay on the left side, which includes French windows on the ground floor. The remaining windows on this elevation are similar to those on the northwest elevation. The southeast elevation showcases mullion and transom windows with leaded lights, along with a glazed door. The southwest elevation features both types of windows and some dummy windows.
