Description

The Vicarage is an 18th-century vicarage located in Widecombe-in-the-Moor. It is constructed of granite and features a hipped slated roof with overhanging eaves. There are chimneystacks at each end of the central valley. The building has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys tall, with three windows across, which are sashes with glazing bars. A former listing noted the presence of a stone gabled porch, and the interior is said to contain a good oak staircase. Close inspection of the property is not permitted.
