Description

The Old Vicarage is a timber-framed and plastered house, partly faced with brick, located on Church Street in Stoke-by-Nayland. It dates from the 16th to 17th century but has been significantly altered and expanded in the 18th and 19th centuries. The building stands two storeys tall and features a large double-gabled block with additional gabled sections. The gables are adorned with 19th-century ornamental bargeboards. Most of the windows are double-hung sashes with glazing bars, including some that are three-light. The roofs are tiled, and there is an original chimney stack at the west end of the main block, which has two octagonal shafts with moulded caps and bases.

The Old Vicarage sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 62% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
