Description
The Vicarage is a house dating from around 1710 to 1730, and has been the vicarage since 1945. It is constructed of Flemish bond brickwork with raised stone quoins and dressings. The house is two storeys high, with cellars and attics, and has five bays. A central stair hall connects flanking reception rooms, with a kitchen wing extending to the right rear. The central entrance features a six-panelled door within a segmental stone architrave, topped with a flat stone canopy supported by brackets. The twelve-paned sash windows also have stone architraves, segmental heads, and keyblocks; the heads of the ground floor windows are raised to a stone cornice. The roof is hipped, with two hipped dormers. The interior includes an early 18th-century dog leg staircase. A bead-moulded stone fireplace is in the left sitting room, a chamfered ceiling beam in the right room, and a deep chamfered spine beam with bar stops in the kitchen, likely reused. A rear door, from the 18th century and panelled, is now incorporated into 20th-century domestic extensions.
