Description
The Vicarage is a late 17th-century vicarage built by Barnabas Oley, who served as vicar, and restored around 1812. It is a two-story building with a basement on the north facade, designed with a symmetrical, double pile plan. The exterior is red brick, topped with a hipped roof covered in plain tiles, featuring a double row of saw-tooth bricks at the eaves cornice. There are three first-floor and three ground-floor windows, which are late 19th-century replacements with casements. A central doorway is approached by stone steps, leading to a 19th-century open porch with a flat roof and a half-glazed, panelled door set in a wooden frame. Inside, original features include a staircase with splat balusters, moulded rails, and square moulded newels, as well as moulded ceiling beams. The building is documented in the Victoria County History (Huntingdonshire, page 296), the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments (Huntingdonshire, page 122), and in a history of Great Gransden published in 1892 (page 177).
