Description
The Vicarage is a house made vicarage dating from around 1830. It is constructed of gault brick, with red brick at the rear, and features a slate roof. The building has two storeys and a three-bay facade with sash windows that include glazing bars and are set beneath skewback arches. The first-floor windows originally had shutters. The central entrance consists of a two-leaf hardwood front door that is partly glazed and has margin lights. A stone or stucco porch is supported by a pair of unfluted Doric columns and pilasters, which hold up a plain entablature. The wide eaves are adorned with paired brackets. The roof is hipped and features two principal axial stacks. On the side elevation, there is a late 19th-century flat-roofed canted bay. The rear of the building includes an arched stair window and an arched back door that is partly blocked, topped with a plain gabled hood on brackets. The north facade has a small Venetian window with rubbed brick arches.
