Description
The Old Vicarage is a vicarage built around the early to mid 18th century, likely a remodelling of an earlier house, with further alterations made in the early 19th century and 20th century updates. The building is constructed of rendered stone rubble and features an asbestos tile roof with gabled and hipped ends, along with gable-end stacks that have rendered shafts.
The layout includes two rooms at the front, connected by an off-centre cross-passage that leads to a stair tower and a small unheated room behind the larger front room on the right. The smaller room on the left is part of a cross-wing, with another room at the back. The large right-hand room has been divided by a 20th-century partition, and there is a single-storey outshut added to the right end.
The building is two storeys tall with an asymmetrical east front featuring two windows to the left under a gable with a stack. All windows are 12-pane sashes, although the first-floor windows have been replaced, and the ground floor left window is missing its glazing bars. The doorway, located to the left of centre, has an early 19th-century six-panel door with a rectangular fanlight that includes tracery. A 20th-century French casement is positioned on the extreme right of the ground floor, and a 20th-century canted bay is found on the left-hand (south) elevation. The rear (west) gable has a hipped roof at the centre, above a large stair window with an arched head.
Inside, the vicarage features a good early to mid 18th-century open-well staircase with a moulded string, a moulded handrail, turned balusters, and square newels with pendants. The first floor contains 18th-century two-panel doors, while the ground floor includes one 18th-century six-panel door, with the other six-panel doors featuring early 19th-century panelled window shutters. Additionally, there is a 19th-century Gothic fire grate on the first floor.
