Description

The Vicarage, now offices and a house, dates from the early to mid-19th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of random sandstone rubble with limestone dressings, and has a roof of large slates with raised coped verges, kneelers, and finials to the gables. The roof is in two spans, with ridge stacks, and includes some asbestos slates and pantiles. The architectural style is Gothic.

The entrance front is two storeys high and includes a two-storey gabled porch with a chamfered doorway featuring a four-centred arch, a hood mould, double doors with a four-centred arched fanlight, and a mullion and transom window above with four-centred arched lights and a hood mould. A lancet window is set in the gable of the porch, and a large external stack is on the left side. To the right of the porch are two bays, with a single light at ground and first floor on the left and a two-light casement at ground and first floor on the right. All windows are metal framed, with the exception of a small two-light gabled dormer to the right.

Attached to the right is a single-storey wing with an asbestos slate roof, featuring a door, and a further attached wing with a 20th-century door and plate-glass window in the gable end, which is pantiled. This latter wing was likely a former stable and is now part of a house.

The left return has two gabled ends. The ground floor has two two-light windows with four-centred arched lights and flat hood moulds, with Gothic tracery glazing bars. Two two-light casements are at first floor, with flat heads, similar hood moulds and glazing bars, and a lancet window in each gable end.

The rear has a square bay with a stone pitched roof; a light with similar glazing bars is to the right, and a 20th-century French window is to the left. There are two similar two-light casements under the eaves with Gothic glazing bars. A rear wing of two storeys has a large mullion and transom window to the right side with four-centred arched heads to the upper lights and a hood mould. A similar two-light casement is under the eaves, and an external stack is to the gable end. The right return of the rear wing features a two-light Gothic casement under the eaves and a similar mullion and transom window at ground floor. The gable end to the left has a door, a tall light, probably for the stairwell, and a lancet window in the gable.

A one-and-a-half-storey wing to the left (a former stable) has a round-headed loading door in the gable end and three 20th-century plate-glass windows at ground floor, the central one with a relieving arch formerly representing a door. A single-storey addition to the side has two roof lights. The gable end of the front range has a large stack.
