Description
The Vicarage is a building that likely dates from the late 17th century but was refronted in the mid 18th century, with further alterations made in the mid 19th century and some in the 20th century. It is constructed of greenstone rubble with granite dressings, while the rear range is made of slatestone and granite rubble, with some parts slate-hung. The building features a hipped slate roof with 20th-century brick stacks on the sides of the front range, and the rear range has a half-hipped slate roof with stacks to the sides topped with brick shafts.
The layout includes a rear range that may have originally been a three-room plan. The front range, built in the mid 18th century, has a two-room plan with principal rooms on the front left and right, and a central entrance hall that leads to a rear stair hall.
The exterior is two storeys high, set on a moulded granite plinth, and presents a symmetrical three-window front. It features granite quoins, a granite band course at the first floor, and the ground floor is made of roughly coursed stone, with slate-hung sections above the band course and a modillion eaves cornice. The first floor has three 18th-century 12-pane sash windows with sidelights, topped with flat stone arches with dressed voussoirs. The ground floor includes a central 20th-century portico with an inner half-glazed door, flanked by 18th-century 12-pane sashes with sidelights, all featuring cambered stone heads.
The left side of the front range is slate-hung and has a small 20th-century lean-to. The rear range is rendered and has a 20-pane sash window at the first floor. The right side of the front range is constructed in random rubble and has a 12-pane sash window at the first floor on the right. The rear range has a wide external stack and a small lean-to at the base, which may have been an oven. The rear is rendered and includes a single-storey rubble lean-to at the centre with a 20th-century door. On the ground floor to the left, there is a 16-pane sash window, while the first floor has three 20th-century lights. The interior was not inspected, but the ground floor windows in the front range have panelled shutters.
