Description

The Parish Room, dated 1900, may include elements from an earlier building. It is constructed of slatestone rubble with a rendered front and features a slate roof with coping and a rubble gable stack with a cap on the right side. This building is likely a remodelling of an earlier house and is designed as a single-storey, one-room parish room heated by a gable stack on the right, which retains its original oven at the base.

At the front, there is a projecting 1½-storey porch that is off-centre to the left. This porch has a 4-centred arched hollow-chamfered doorway with long and short painted stone dressings. Above the doorway is a small 2-light, 2-pane casement window with a hollow-chamfered surround and a hood-mould. A date plaque above the door indicates that Reverend and Mrs J.H.B. Wollocombe erected the building on a site presented by Viscount Ebrington as a reading room for the young men of the parish. To the right of the porch, there is a similar 4-light, 4-pane window, and to the left, a 3-light, 3-pane window.

The right return features an oven projection at the base of the stack, which is curved with a slate top, and there is an outshut to the right with a straight joint and a 6-pane light. The left return has a blank gable end, while the rear includes a single-storey outshut to the left with a door. The interior has not been inspected.
