Description

The Old Vicarage is an 18th-century former vicarage constructed of stone rubble with a slate roof featuring gabled ends and bracketed eaves. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a three-bay front. It includes two-light casement windows with leaded panes and dressed stone surrounds, along with a central first-floor sash window that has glazing bars and a lintel with a keystone. The entrance features a central fielded panel door topped by a hood on brackets. There are brick chimney stacks at the gable ends.

The structure has symmetrical two-storey wings on the left and right, creating a half H plan, both with hipped slate roofs and oversailing bracketed eaves. The left wing contains casement windows in dressed stone surrounds with flat arches, while the right wing features a segmental arched carriageway entrance.

The principal garden front faces southwest and consists of two storeys with five bays. It showcases sash windows with glazing bars set in rusticated stone surrounds with keyholes. The central entrance is a panelled door within a moulded architrave, accompanied by a rectangular fanlight and a wooden lattice porch in a chinoisserie style, topped with a tented lead roof. To the left and right are lower two-storeyed one-bay wings with sash windows, and to the right, there is an additional two-storeyed one-bay wing that is slightly set back. The interior of the building has been much altered.
