The Vicarage

The Vicarage is an early 18th-century house, originally the vicarage, with significant 19th-century alterations and additions to the rear. The original sections form an L-shaped plan. The house is built of colourwashed brick, with a slate roof to the front range and pantiled (glazed black tile) roofs to the remainder. It is two storeys high with attics to the front range, and has four windows facing the road. These windows are sash windows with glazing bars, set within flush frames and arched under cambered arches. There’s evidence of a fifth bay on the left-hand side, which is now blocked. The asymmetrical front door has a six-panel raised and fielded door, a simple rectangular fanlight, pilasters, and a mid-20th-century bracketed hood. A stucco band runs at first-floor level, and there's a moulded brick eaves cornice. The north wing has 18th-century mullion and transom windows with small panes, some blank panels, and a brick dentil eaves cornice. A substantial internal stack is present in each wing. The front range contains one fully panelled room; the panelling is mostly 19th-century, with a small amount of imported 17th-century material.
