Description
The Vicarage is a purpose-built vicarage dating to around 1870, designed by William Woodyer. It is constructed from stone rubble on the ground floor, with the first floor tile-hung, and has a tiled roof with a brick chimneystack. The building is square in plan, with two storeys, attics, and basements.
The west elevation is the principal facade. The basement and ground floor are of stone rubble with a stone modillion cornice. The first floor is clad in alternate bands of plain and scalloped tiles. The first floor features a central five-light mullioned and transomed window with trefoliated heads. The ground floor has two sash windows with horns, and a doorcase composed of four pointed arches of the Early English style, incorporating columns. Two of the arches are blind, and a plank door in a stone surround is set back behind the right-hand arch. A flight of six stone steps leads to the entrance, accompanied by stone balustrading. The roof is in two hips, with a gabled dormer between them, and two tall, panelled brick stacks. The rear elevation features two gables.
