The Old Vicarage

The Old Vicarage is a house, originally built in the late 17th century and extended in the 18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with a thatched roof, and has brick end and ridge stacks. The house is two storeys and an attic, and presents a four-window front. The original plan comprised two units, with a single-unit addition. A four-panelled door, with a glazed upper section and gabled hood supported by posts, is located to the left of the centre. The ground floor has four-light casement windows with wooden lintels, while the first floor has twelve-pane sash windows with wooden lintels, except for the window above the door, which has a flat arch, and the one in the eyebrow dormer. An 18th-century two-storey wing was added to the rear, to the left. Internally, the original section features ogee-stop-chamfered spine beams. There are two open fireplaces; one with a chamfered bressumer, and another in the original kitchen with a cambered chamfered bressumer. The roof of the original core consists of three bays with ties and collars to the principal rafters, two tiers of purlins, and a ridge piece.
