Description

The building is a house, which was once a vicarage, and an adjoining barn located at Chapel Farmhouse. The north and west wings date back to the 16th century, while the main range was built in the early 18th century. The windows on the south front were opened around 1962. The north and west wings, along with the barn, are timber framed and feature weatherboarding, with the north wing being cased in red brick. The main range is constructed of red brick and has a hipped slate roof with a plaster coved eaves cornice. The wings have old red tile roofs.

This impressive L-shaped early Georgian house is two stories high and faces east, with a garden front facing south. It incorporates a two-story older west range and a north range with a kitchen that is open to the roof. The east front has five symmetrical windows, a central door, and tall sash windows with six-over-six panes and box sashes under gauged flat arches. The south garden front mostly features blind recesses, but one window retains old ovolo-moulded glazing bars.

Inside, the house has a contemporary interior that includes an early 18th-century stair at the rear with a moulded string and turned balusters, raised and fielded panelling, shutters, and two-panel doors with H-hinges and case locks. The north range contains a kitchen and scullery formed from a single stone-floored room that is open to the roof, featuring an open fireplace that has been partly infilled. There is a 17th-century door located about three meters above the floor to the right of the chimney, accessed via a winding staircase in the older part of the house, which has old moulded plank doors with iron bands.
