Description
The Old Vicarage and attached stables is a former vicarage, now a house, built in the early 19th century with some mid-19th century alterations and possibly 18th-century stables. The building is constructed from limestone ashlar and coursed squared rubble with ashlar dressings, topped with a Welsh-slate roof and buff brick stacks. It has a double-depth plan with an added wing and stands two storeys tall.
The main range features a symmetrical three-window ashlar front, complete with a storey band and plain keyblock architraves around the openings. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door with a rectangular overlight and a 20th-century Regency-style porch. The outer bays have tripartite sashes, with the central opening lowered to accommodate glazed doors, while the first floor has 12-pane sashes. The roof is a double-span hipped style with flanking stacks.
To the right, there is an added lower rubble wing that has deep stone-mullioned windows, which are irregularly arranged and feature labels and sashes. The rear of the main range displays a three-window arrangement of plain sashes, with five panes deep at the ground floor, now partly obscured by a 20th-century extension.
Attached to the rear corner of the main range is a rubble stable range that runs parallel to the wing. This stable range has a steep slated roof and retains its coach-house, loft, and stable doors, along with small windows that mostly have stop-chamfered lintels. The interior has not been inspected. The building was noted as "extended" in 1823, which likely refers to the date of the main range.
