Description
The Vicarage is a vicarage built around 1860 by A. Buckeridge. It is constructed from lias ashlar and features a 20th-century plain-tile roof. The building has a double-depth plan and consists of two storeys and an attic. The garden front has a four-window range on the ground floor and a three-window range on the first floor, featuring two- and three-light stone-mullion and transom windows with arched and cusped head lights, all enclosed by an arch head string course. The central window on the first floor is a gabled dormer with bargeboards and a quatrefoil at the apex. The building also has ashlar gable parapets, kneelers, and stone stacks at the ridge. The elevation to the right of the garden front is similar, while the left elevation includes a wooden porch with a hipped roof and a 19th-century panelled door. The interior has not been inspected.
