Description

The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage, now a house, dating from the early to mid-19th century with later extensions. It is constructed of coursed squared and dressed limestone, topped with a stone slate roof and features an ashlar stack. The main body has a rectangular plan, with later extensions to the left-hand return and the rear right. There is a 20th-century flat-roofed extension at the rear, which is not of special interest.

The facade is symmetrical, two-storey, and has three windows, all lit by 12-pane sash windows. The central entrance features a 19th-century six-panel door with a rectangular hall-light above that has marginal glazing bars. A central open-sided portico with freestanding Doric columns at the front and engaged responds supports a flat stone roof with a moulded margin. The extension to the left of the main body is set back and has two storeys, with a two-light stone-mullioned casement on the ground floor and a two-light wooden casement with glazing bars on the first floor. The roof is hipped at the front and has twin hipped gables at the rear, with axial stacks. The interior has not been inspected.
