Description
Christ Church Vicarage is a mid-19th century building, likely designed by Charles Parker, and shares a similar style with the adjacent church. The vicarage is two storeys high with a wide, three-bay front. It features a high-pitched, slated roof that is hipped on the right and has a second hip to the right, along with a rear extension. The exterior is constructed of ashlar stone and includes a modillioned cornice and a scalloped stone bargeboard at the front.
On the first floor, the windows on the right and left are two and three-light sashes with pilaster mullions. The central first-floor window is round-arched and flanked by nook shafts. There is a string course at the first-floor cills. The ground floor windows are also round-arched with nook shafts, consisting of a single window on the left and paired windows on the right, all with moulded architraves. A band with dog-tooth moulding is present at the spring of the arches, and there is a high plinth at the ground floor cills.
The entrance is round-arched and features moulded architraves, chevron moulding on the second plane, and two nook shafts on either side, with the inner shafts displaying an incised spiral pattern. All shafts have foliated capitals. The deeply recessed door consists of ten fielded panels and is set under a round arch with nook shafts and a carved stone cornice head. To the left, there is a one-storey, one-window extension, and to the right, a one-storey, blank-arched link connects the vicarage to the church.
