The Old Vicarage

The Old Vicarage is an early 18th-century vicarage, now a house, that was originally larger. It is constructed of chequered red and grey brick with a plain tile roof. The south front, which faces the garden, is two stories high and features a plat band. It has a plain brick eaves cornice to the central section and a moulded eaves cornice to the end sections. The roof is in three sections: a broad central section that projects slightly and is hipped at either end, and narrower end sections roofed as wings and hipped to the garden front. There are stacks at either end of the central section. The south front has a regular five-window facade with narrow, recessed, glazing bar sashes; the ground floor windows have rubbed brick voussoirs, with three windows to the central section and one to each of the end sections. Windows in the end sections on the ground floor and the central window of the first floor were converted into French windows in the 20th century. A central doorway on the ground floor, originally reached by four steps, is now occupied by 20th-century French windows, flanked by 20th-century pilasters supporting a small balcony with iron railings to the first floor, which itself has French windows. The north front, which is the main entrance front, has a single roof and very narrow windows. A porch is supported by Doric columns carrying an entablature and a flat hood.
