Description
The Old Vicarage is an early to mid-19th century brick house located in Church End, Rickling. It is constructed of grey gault brick and features a short wing projecting westward to the north. The two-storey main block has a symmetrical one-bay-by-three-window arrangement of double-hung sashes, with glazing bars. A raised brick band runs across the front of the building between the two floors. The central doorway to the main block is sheltered by a brick porch with a pediment and an open semi-circular archway. The roof is slate, with a hipped form at both the south end and on the wing.
