Description

St Barnabas Parsonage, built around 1850 by Cundy Junior, is a parsonage located on a corner site in the early English Gothic style. It features ragstone construction with ashlar dressings and a pitched slate roof that extends to the eaves. The building has two storeys with dormers and includes three windows facing St Barnabas Street and fourteen windows facing Ranelagh Grove. The main entrance is situated in a courtyard accessed through an archway, flanked by two polygonal turrets topped with conical ashlar roofs. The exterior is adorned with chimney stacks on the outer walls, painted lancet windows with leaded diamond panes, and gabled dormers on the Ranelagh Grove facade. The parsonage is part of a cohesive group that includes St Barnabas Church and the school, as noted in Pevsner's "London, Vol I."
