Description
The Parsonage is a detached house dating from the mid-17th century, with alterations made around 1830. It is constructed of chequer flint and limestone, with an alternately plain and fishscale tiled roof, coped verges, and gable end brick stacks. The front facade is two storeys high and features three windows, with sash windows throughout. A two-storey gabled porch was added in the 19th century, centrally located on the right side; it has a moulded opening, late 19th-century sidelights, a half-glazed inner door, and a tripartite plate glass sash window on either side. The first floor has margin-pane sashes on either side of the porch, along with a margin-pane sash and sidelights. A large stone and flint external stack is visible on the left return, and the right return features chamfered lights. The rear of the property includes French windows, a margin-pane glazed door, and sashes. A two-span roofed rear range, dating from the 1830s, is also present with margin-pane sashes. Inside, the ground floor east room contains an open fireplace with a chamfered lintel and a chamfered beam with ogee stops. The west room also contains a wide chamfered beam. The entrance hall features a staircase with turned balusters, a wreathed and moulded handrail, a moulded ceiling cornice, and moulded niches.
