Description
The Old Vicarage is a vicarage that has been converted into a private house. It likely dates from the 17th century or earlier and has been significantly enlarged and altered over time. The building features white-painted coursed rubble and a stone slate roof. It is a long, single-depth structure oriented roughly north-south and consists of at least three distinct building phases. The main range has approximately three structural bays, with an early one-bay extension at the north end and a 19th-century one-bay addition at the south end.
The exterior is two storeys high, with the west front displaying a 1:5:1 window arrangement. The five-window main range includes three small windows, a doorway, and another small window on the ground floor. The doorway features a part-glazed door, while most windows are square. The first and third windows are 6-pane sashes, and the second and fourth are casements with glazing bars. The first floor has five 12-pane hornless sashes arranged in a 1:3:1 pattern. The left end of the building has a large square chimney stack with a wide cylindrical shaft, and there is a lateral chimney stack on the ridge between the fourth and fifth windows, featuring coupled cylindrical shafts.
The left extension has a lean-to at ground floor, a narrow 4-pane sashed window above, and a gable chimney. The 19th-century addition on the right is slightly taller and includes a wide round-headed window with margin panes, a narrow 6-pane window with arched glazing bars in the top panes, and a 12-pane sashed window on the first floor. There is also a lateral chimney at the junction with three clustered cylindrical shafts.
The rear, or east front, features a full-height gabled turret at the center of the main range, a bowed full-height extension to the south bay, and two very small windows on the first floor aligned with the north chimney stack. Various hornless sashed windows are present, including one tripartite sash on each floor of the 19th-century addition at the south end.
Inside, the walls on the ground floor of the main range are very thick, and the internal partitioning has been altered at various times, making the building's evolution difficult to discern.
