Description
The Old Vicarage is a house dating from the 18th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century. It is timber framed and plastered, featuring a facade of painted brick and a roof covered with handmade red clay tiles. The main part of the house faces southwest and has an external stack at the left end and an internal stack at the right end. There is a wing at the rear of the left end, which includes an external stack on the left side, along with a 20th-century flat-roofed single-storey extension at the end. Another wing is located at the rear of the right end, which also has an external stack. The overall layout of the building forms an approximately square plan. To the right of the right rear wing, there is a single-storey extension from the 19th century with a slate roof. The house is two storeys tall and features two early 19th-century sash windows on the ground floor, each with three upper lights and six lower lights. The early 19th-century brick facade is accented by a simple cornice and parapet, with entrances located in both returns.
