Description
The Old Vicarage is a 15th-century timber-framed building that has undergone alterations in the mid to late 19th century. It stands two storeys tall and has a half H-shaped layout with four windows. The central section features two windows and is covered in stucco with a string course. The projecting wings are gabled; the ground floor of the north-west wing is stuccoed, while the south-east wing is constructed of flints with rusticated quoins. The first floor extends over the ends of the floor joists, with the north-west wing being close-studded and the south-east wing plastered. The gables also extend over bressumers and brackets, with the north-west wing featuring an attic window. There are modern bay windows on the ground floor, and the building has a tiled roof with tall brick chimneys. The doorway, located in an attached wall made of knapped flints with brick coping, displays an armorial plaque of the Marquees Conyngham.
