Carlyon House

Carlyon House is a vicarage located in Barnstaple, believed to have been built in 1837 but remodeled around 1860. The building features rendered mass wall construction topped with a slate roof and has stacks with rendered shafts. It has a deep rectangular plan and stands two storeys tall. The front is asymmetrical with three bays on the left that are symmetrical, while the centre bay projects forward and is gabled at the front. The house has deep eaves and verges supported by brackets, an eaves band, and a platband at the first-floor cill level.

The recessed 20th-century front door is flanked by paired Doric pilasters and topped with an entablature featuring a cornice. The door includes an overlight with geometric glazing bars. There are 12-pane sash windows, with two on the ground floor and three on the first. To the right, a lower-roofed block has 12-pane sashes on the first floor, while the ground-floor windows have been replaced with modern top-hung timber casements.

Historically, Reed notes that the vicarage was built at the expense of the Reverend William Craddock Hall and ceased to function as a vicarage around 1970.
