Description

The Old Vicarage is a long timber-framed and plastered building from the mid-18th century, with an early 19th-century white brick block at the rear. It stands two storeys high with attics and features a six-window range. The upper storey has horizontal sliding sashes, while the ground storey has 3-light double-hung sashes with glazing bars. The roofs are tiled, and there is a large square central chimney stack.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 53% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.4°C per decade since 1991.
