Leach'S And Front Boundary Walling

No. 30 Vicarage Street is a detached house dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. The front is faced with Ham stone ashlar, while the sides and rear are of coursed rubble. The roof is tiled, with stone slate base courses between stepped coped gables, and stone slab chimney stacks. The house is two storeys high with an attic, and has three bays. It features hollow-chamfered mullioned windows without labels; four-light windows are found in the outer bays, a three-light window is in the upper bay, and the lower bay to the right has a 20th-century stone and tiled porch protecting a moulded flat-arched doorway with a boarded floor. More 20th-century windows are present in the north gable, but an early leaded casement window is in the attic. An outshut is located at the rear. A long, lower barn-like building, with a matching roof and plain gabled end, is set into the south gable. It includes a pair of full-height divided doors and a small slit vent. The interior remains unseen. Approximately 3 metres east of the house is a low wall of ashlar construction with a chamfered plinth and thin coping. It stands about one metre high, with curved sweeps up to square piers at the corners and a gateway opposite the porch, topped with bell-hip caps. Returns to both ends of the facade rise to about 1.5 metres, with further curved sweeps, and the wall plays an important part in the setting of the house.
