Description
Vicarage Farmhouse is a house with two sections, built in the late 18th century with an early 19th-century addition. It is constructed of brick in English bond and has a pantile roof with brick stacks. Originally, the house had a central entrance, but now features an extension on the right and a service wing at the rear. The building is two storeys high and has four windows on the first floor. The earlier section includes two full-height canted bays, while the later section has one semi-circular bay. The entrance features a four-panel door set in a plain doorcase, topped by a radial fanlight and flanked by tripartite sash windows. The semi-circular bay on the far right has two curved sashes. On the first floor, there are tripartite sashes in the canted bays and a sash window with glazing bars above the door, along with one curved sash in the semi-circular bay. Brick arches are present throughout the building, and there is a dentilled eaves course. The house has end stacks and a ridge stack, which was formerly an end stack.
