Description
The Old Vicarage is a vicarage that has been converted into a house, dated 1869 according to the inscription above the main door. It was designed by Charles Buckeridge and is constructed from napped flint with brick dressings, featuring an old plain-tile complex roof and various brick stacks. The building showcases a complex plan and is designed in the Gothic revival style, consisting of two storeys and an attic with a four-window range. The central entrance has a four-panel door with a side window to the left, which is sheltered by a lean-to roof. Most openings feature three-light stone-mullion and transom windows with sashes, while the cross-gables in the attic have single-light stone-mullion windows. The interior has not been inspected.
