Description
The Priest's House is likely a 14th-century building, possibly serving as a residence for a priest. It is constructed from random limestone with a stone slate roof and has a rectangular plan. The building is approximately one and a half storeys high.
The south-facing front has a single-width doorway without a door, flanked by dressed stone jambs, with a timber lintel, and a partially rebuilt left side in the 20th century. There is also an unglazed 2-light casement with a timber lintel, and a further unglazed opening that may have been a window. The north elevation shows traces of a blocked 5- or 6-light window with diamond-sectioned wooden mullions.
Inside, the building is divided into two unconnected rooms. The left-hand room features a single, deeply chamfered beam with triangular stops, an 'L'-shaped staircase in the front right corner, and no visible fireplace. The right-hand room has a blocked open fireplace at the east gable end, featuring a wooden bressumer and dressed stone jamb stones. The roof, rear wall, and gable end of the right-hand room were in a state of collapse at the time of the last survey in September 1986.
