Holy Cross Inns Court Vicarage

Holy Cross Inns Court Vicarage is an early 15th-century stair turret located in Inns Court Green, Knowle, Bristol. The structure is built from coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and features a roof covered with pantiles and black glazed ridges. It has a hexagonal shape with four sides and is designed in the Perpendicular Gothic style. The turret stands two storeys tall and is supported by weathered buttresses at each angle.

The doorway, located on the side second from the right, has a four-centred moulded arch set within a square moulded frame, flanked by plain shields in the spandrels. The two left-hand sides of the turret feature single-light windows with similar surrounds. Above these and the door are two-light ogee and cinquefoil windows that illuminate a landing and a now-removed run of stairs. To the right of the door, there is a smaller and higher ground-floor window, which also resembles the aforementioned windows and lights the surviving stairs leading up over the door. Above this is a window with ogee tracery that forms trefoils in the spandrels, and there is a drip moulding above the heads of the ground- and first-floor windows.

Extending from the left of the turret is a wall that slopes down to a roof fall, which includes a small four-centred doorway. The turret is connected to a mid-20th-century building, which is not included in the listing. The vicarage is a remnant of a larger house, likely constructed for the lawyer Sir John Innys, who passed away in 1439. It is noted as "the most sophisticated piece of building from the early fifteenth century in Bristol."
