Description
The Old Vicarage is a house that dates from the 16th and 17th centuries and has an L-shaped plan, with later extensions added in the late 18th and 19th centuries at the northeast and northwest ends. The exterior features whitewashed render and a brick plinth, topped with a two-span old tile roof and 19th-century brick chimneys. The right gables display some chequer brickwork. The building is two storeys tall and has a front with five irregular bays. The leftmost bay is a late 18th to 19th-century projection that includes a gable on the right return wall, a rendered cornice at the eaves, and a two-storey canted bay window at the front, which has three-pane sash windows on each side. The remaining bays feature similar sashes on the first floor and in the ground floor of the fourth bay. Bays two and three include a 20th-century lean-to porch with double doors beneath a large shell hood supported by brackets, along with flanking oriel bow windows. The right oriel, located at the corner of the porch, has a conical roof, while the left oriel has an ogee lead roof. Inside, there are elements of timber framing, stop-chamfered and moulded spine beams, and moulded cross beams in a partitioned room in the southeast corner. The interior also boasts a fine late 18th to 19th-century staircase with turned balusters.
