Description

Carvedras House is a house that now serves as a vicarage, built in the early 19th century. It features stuccoed walls and a hipped roof made of grouted scantle slate, with projecting eaves and stuccoed stacks on the side walls. The building has a double-depth plan, consisting of two front reception rooms on either side of a central entrance hall. It is two storeys high with a symmetrical three-window front. The house has a plinth and a mid-floor band, and the central doorway includes a panelled door with an overlight and a distyle porch supported by square columns and an entablature. The ground-floor openings have original 16-pane hornless sash windows set within flat architraves, topped with moulded hoods on consoles.

Inside, Carvedras House retains much of its original carpentry, joinery, and plasterwork, including panelled doors and shutters, an open-well open-string staircase with a mahogany handrail over a scrolled newel, and moulded plaster cornices in the front rooms. In the garden next to the church, there is a well that served the former Dominican Friary from 1259 to 1538.
