Description

The Old Vicarage and Numbers 1 and 2 comprise three houses, originally a vicarage, built in 1841 by Hayward. The construction is colour-painted roughcast rendering, with slate roofs and yellow brick stacks. The building is L-shaped, featuring shaped Flemish gables – three to the north side, recessed on the left, three to the south side, two to the west end, and a single gable to the east. It extends over two storeys plus an attic storey and incorporates cellars. The right and left sides are slightly advanced, each with a shaped gable to the attic. Window openings are deep, housing wooden ovolo-moulded windows: the ground floor has four-light windows with transoms, the first floor has three-light windows, and the attics have two-light windows within the gables. The south side has lateral stacks positioned centrally on each end gable. A two-light window is located in the central gable, positioned above a three-light window of double sashes. The left-hand gable has a sash window with two panes over two, alongside a 20th-century casement. A four-centred arched doorway, framed by a moulded surround, leads to a half-glazed, panelled door of two leaves with an overlight, all within a 20th-century porch. Timber ovolo-mullion windows, including transomed three-light and two-light examples, flank a 20th-century plank door in the centre. The right side mirrors this with a four-centred arched door to the left of a lateral stack and a 20th-century casement to the right. Similar fenestration is present on the north and east elevations.

Inside, the principal rooms are adorned with egg and dart cornices. A dog-leg staircase features heavily turned balusters, turned newels with rose finials, and an overall ornate detailing.
