St Mary's House

St Mary's House is a building that was originally a house, later used as a vicarage, and is now functioning as offices. The main facade may have been designed between 1765 and 1770 by John Chute of the Vyne, with earlier fabric located behind it.

The materials used for the main facade include red and grey brick with stone dressings, while the rear section is constructed of dark red brick. The roof is hipped and covered with plain tiles.

On the side facing London Road, the house features a three-storey, double-fronted facade designed in a Georgian 'Gothick' style. A flight of steps with railings leads up to the central doorway, which is framed by an ogee-headed stone surround topped with a pineapple finial and flanked by tripartite shafts that have small pinnacles. The door itself has four raised and fielded panels, with a Y-tracery fanlight above. A stone string-course runs across the facade, rising to form hood-moulds over the ground-floor windows. These windows are paired Tudor-arched sashes with intersecting glazing bars, set within square stone surrounds. The outer first-floor windows match this style but lack the string-course, while the central window features a single broad sash. The second-floor windows are similar but shorter. Above these is a stone cornice adorned with quatrefoil ornament, and the facade is topped with a crenellated parapet.

The rear part of the house appears to be older and consists of two hip-roofed cross-wings with a narrow infill section between them. The left-hand return wall features two ogee-headed sash windows, which are likely contemporary with the facade.

The interior has not been inspected.
