Description
The Old Vicarage is a house built around 1812. It is constructed of stuccoed stone and has a slate roof. The building is two storeys high and features three bays, with recessed single-storey gabled wings on either side. The central entrance plan includes sashed windows with glazing bars and plain surrounds. The entrance has a pulvinated frieze and a pediment, leading to a six-panel half-glazed door located at the right wing. There are gable end stacks and blind roundels on the gables of the wings. The rear of the house is similar in design and includes a tall, small-paned stair window.
