Description
The Gannock House is a former schoolmaster's house that now serves as a vicarage. It was built in 1786, with an early 19th-century extension and late 19th-century alterations. The original structure is made of coursed dressed sandstone, while the extension features pink and cream mottled brick laid in Flemish bond. The roofs are covered with pantiles and have stone-coped gables with shaped kneelers, along with brick stacks.
The house has a central-entry plan with an outshut and an added wing. The main front faces the churchyard and is two storeys high with three windows. There is a two-storey, one-window wing set back on the right. The entrance features a six-panel door beneath a divided overlight, flanked by 16-pane sash windows. On the first floor, there are also 16-pane windows; to the left is a hung sash, in the center is a replacement fixed light, and to the right is another hung sash with a sliding sash in the bottom half. All windows have flat arches made of voussoirs, and all except the center first-floor window have stone sills. Above the door is a datestone inscribed: "Gulielmus Jonsonus cler. Ludimagister Scholam junta positam AD1783 et hanc domum AD1786 extruendam curavit."
The Town Street front features a two-storey, two-window outshut, with a tall two-storey, one-window wing projecting on the left. The right end of the outshut has a six-panel door with an overlight in a brick quoined surround. To the left, there is a three-light large-pane casement beneath a cambered brick arch. A similar window is located above, with a painted timber lintel, and a small square light has been inserted to the right. All windows on this front have stone sills. There is a separate entrance to the wing in a stepped-up wall at the left end, accessed through a round-arched passage doorway with a four-panel door and divided fanlight. The wing features four-pane sashes with painted stone sills and painted wedge lintels on both floors, with the first-floor window being blind.
