Description

The Vicarage dates from around 1740 and was originally built for the Church of St Winnow. It was extended and remodelled around 1800 by Robert Walker, and may incorporate an earlier wing at the rear. Buildings on the west were demolished in 1933, a further wing in 1968, and a single-storey extension to the rear was added in the 20th century.

The building is constructed of rubblestone, with segmental brick arches to window openings on the south front. Windows have slate sills on the left-hand side and granite sills on the right. Parts of the rear are slate hung. The roof is slate, with gabled ends, a central projecting gabled front with deep overhanging eaves, and a hipped scantle slate roof to the rear wing. Brick stacks are located in gable ends and to the right of the centre gabled section.

The interior has been remodelled; the main range comprises a long hallway on the north side with reception rooms on the south. A kitchen range and staircase are situated in the rear projecting wing. The property has two storeys, an attic, and a basement on the south-west. The front facade is almost symmetrical, with seven windows. The earlier building consists of the left-hand side and centre range. The centre three bays were projected forward and given a gabled roof when the building was extended around 1800. The ground floor features two six-over-nine pane sashes in the flanking wings, and three eighteen-pane sashes in the centre. The second floor has two sashes, each with three panes above three panes, in the wings, and three sashes, each with six panes above three panes, in the centre. All ground floor windows except those in the attic have horns and exposed boxes; the later right-hand part of the front has sashes set within reveals. The deep overhanging eaves of the central gabled section are supported by large, timber, corbelled, painted brackets.

An entrance is located in the north-east corner of the rear under a flat-roofed porch supported on timber posts, which extends north with an upper floor, partially stuccoed, supported on timber posts. The interior includes a simple 19th-century staircase with an open string, square balusters, and turned newels. A segmental arch with double doors leads to a parish room on the north, and a round arch with a fanlight leads to the west side of the earlier range. A fireplace in the room on the south-east features marble Doric columns and a moulded frame. Simple coved cornices are present throughout.
