Description

Hampden House, formerly known as The Vicarage, is a building dated 1730. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring four windows and one window-space, along with two gabled dormers. The structure is constructed of red brick and has a wooden eaves cornice and a hipped tiled roof. The windows are designed with wide glazing bars. The entrance is located at the top of three steps and is adorned with a blunt pediment supported by brackets, leading to a door with six fielded panels. Above the entrance, there is a blind window-space faced with grey headers, which displays the date 1730 along with the initials "LE".
