The Old Manse and Former Barn

The Old Manse and former barn is a vicarage and barn, now a private house, believed to have been built in 1602 for the vicar Edward Wilson, with 19th-century alterations. The building features roughcast walls beneath a graduated greenslate roof, with roughcast chimney stacks. It is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a two-bay former stable and a single-bay barn on the extreme left, all covered by a common roof. There is a 20th-century porch with a 20th-century door in a wooden surround. The windows are sash style with glazing bars set in plain reveals. The former stable has a porch in front of its entrance, with sash windows above. The barn includes plank doors in a projecting cart entrance and a shippon to the left. Inside the barn, there is a beam that is carved with the date 1825. The rear of the house has similar windows to the front, along with two 20th-century windows. By the 20th century, it had ceased to function as a vicarage and was known as Bluemire.
