Description

The Old Vicarage is a house, formerly serving as the vicarage, built between 1848 and 1851 by St Aubyn. It is constructed from dressed and coursed Thorverton stone and features a slate gabled-end roof. The building has an L-shaped plan with a front wing and is two stories high, accompanied by a single-storey kitchen block at the left-hand end.

The front elevation is asymmetrical with four bays. The left-hand bay projects as a gabled wing, featuring a six-light window on each floor and a large external lateral stack with a wing front. The right-hand bay is marked by a prominent lateral external stack with weatherings, both stacks topped with moulded brick Tudor-style chimneys. The two central bays are each topped with a small gable that contains a small window, with brick infill. Asymmetrically placed leaded windows include a tall stair window with leaded panes to the left of the main entrance, which is framed by a pointed single-chamfered stone arch. The kitchen block has a large end stack similar to the others.

The rear elevation consists of four separately gabled bays, with the end bays taller than the central pair. It features four leaded windows on the ground floor, comprising two, three, and four-light designs, and four two- and three-light windows above. The casements have largely been renewed. The building is bargeboarded throughout, with small pendants at the apexes of the gables. Inside, the main right-hand room boasts an elaborate stone chimney piece, with the lintel supported by a frieze of shields and fleurons in concave moulding. Note that the replica Georgian terrace balustrading on each side of the house is not included in the listed description.
