Description
The Vicarage in Kirkby Malham is a building dated 1622, with restoration completed in 1866. It is constructed of squared coursed rubble with ashlar facing on the porch, stone dressings, and a stone slate roof. The structure has three storeys and six bays. The 17th-century windows are double chamfered with cavetto mullions on stools, while the 19th-century windows feature ogee mullions on stools, unless otherwise noted.
The porch, located in the second bay, is three storeys high and features an entrance with a cavetto moulded surround, incorporating some 17th-century stones along with an 1866 head and hood-mould. Above the entrance is a datestone from 1622, though the lettering is illegible. On the first floor, there is a 17th-century four-light window with a drip mould above it, and a three-light window in the gable with a central light that is stepped. The ridge is topped with a terracotta finial.
On the right-hand side of the porch, there is a 19th-century two-light window on the ground floor with a hood mould, a 17th-century two-light window on the first floor, and a small single-light window with cavetto jambs above. To the right of the porch, there are two 19th-century ground floor windows; the left one has six lights and the right one has five lights, both featuring transoms and hood moulds. The first floor has four 17th-century three-light windows, all with a drip mould above that forms a continuous hood mould between the second and third bays. On the second floor, there are four unevenly spaced 17th-century two-light windows. The bay to the left of the porch was added in 1866.
The rear of the building contains three 17th-century windows: a two-light and a three-light on the ground floor, and a two-light on the upper floor. The interior was completely renewed in 1866, and the second floor was removed, resulting in the upper two rows of windows now being part of the first floor.
