Description

The warehouse located to the north of the Vicarage, dating from the early 19th century, is a four-storey building constructed of rubble. It features seven bays with standard segment-headed windows that have flat mullions. In the third bay from the right, there is a segment-headed door and a hoist door positioned above. To the right, there is a two-storey extension with a configuration of two, three, and two bays; the mullions have been removed on the first floor, and the corner is chamfered. The slate roof has coped verges. At the rear, the second bay from the left includes a two-storey window, while the right-hand bay has a gable over a stair-bay. There is an obscured date stone in the west gable. Part of the building was originally a silk factory and is said to contain a beam inscribed with "John Yerbury 1827."
