Description
The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage now serving as a private dwelling. It dates from the 16th to 17th century and was enlarged in the early to mid-19th century. The building features roughcast over rubble and has an asbestos slate roof that is hipped at the 19th-century addition. The roof includes soffit boards and paired brackets, with roughcast stacks located on the external right gable end, center left, and left on the 19th-century addition.
The structure has an L-plan layout, with the original two-cell dwelling oriented north-south and the 19th-century addition extending west from the south end. The east front is two storeys high and consists of five bays arranged in an irregular pattern. The left three bays project slightly forward and contain 12 and 16-pane sash windows. To the right, there are two 16-pane sashes, and on the ground floor, there is a flat-roofed canted bay with two 15-pane sash windows at its center, with similar windows on the angled returns. To the right of the canted bay, there is a 12-pane window on the left and a tripartite 16-pane sash window to the right of a six-panelled door, which has panelled reveals and a pentice porch suspended by chains.
The long left return features a lower service wing at the rear, with a canted bay on the ground floor and a blind semi-circular headed niche on the first floor right, flanked by sash windows. The interior has not been seen but is said to contain moulded ceiling beams.
