Description

The Vicarage is a house dating from the late 18th century. It is built of plum brick with red dressings and features an old tile hipped roof that has three dormers and end stacks on the left and right. The building has two storeys and an attic, with five bays and glazing bar sash windows. The central bay projects slightly and is topped with a triangular pediment that includes a small circular window in the tympanum. There is a 19th-century ashlar porch supported by Doric pilasters and featuring a parapet. The entrance has a panelled door with a fanlight above, and there is a radial fanlight in the vestibule behind.
