The Vicarage

The Vicarage is a vicarage built in the early to mid-18th century, with earlier origins, 19th-century alterations, and late 19th to early 20th-century additions. The exterior features a rendered front, tile-hanging, Bargate rubblestone with brick dressings, and brick. It has plain tile roofs and is two storeys high with an attic. The building has four bays, including a wide cross-wing bay on the left, and there are additions to the rear.

The four-bay range includes a door with six raised and fielded panels set in an architrave with a console-bracketed hood at bay one. Bay three has a sash window with glazing bars in the reveal, while bay four features a wooden cross-window. On the first floor, there are four sash windows with glazing bars and projecting wood sills. The roof has two gabled dormers with cross-windows and a stack at the right end.

The left wing has two ground-floor sash windows with glazing bars, with tile-hanging above that includes decorative bands of cusped tiles. There is a cross-window under a tile pentice in the attic and a stack on the left side. The left return, which is early 18th century or earlier and altered in the 19th century, is made of rubblestone with brick surrounds for various windows, featuring 12-pane and 16-pane sashes, as well as one four-light window with ovolo-moulded mullions on the ground floor.

The right return has two gabled ranges added parallel to the main range; the left one is from the 19th century and made of rubblestone with a canted front, featuring three-light windows flanked by two-light windows, all transomed with segmental brick arches and intersecting glazing bars on the ground floor. The right range, dating from around 1900, is of brick and tile-hung and includes a two-storey canted bay window on the left.

Inside, the principal feature is a fine early to mid-18th-century open-well stair with wave-moulded treads, an open string, turned, knobbed, column-on-vase balusters, columnar newels, and a moulded handrail with a spiral curtail, along with a panelled dado. In the left wing, the central room on both the ground and first floors has a fireplace with an eared architrave, a Greek key motif in the frieze and cornice, and the ground-floor room is panelled.
