Description

The Old Vicarage is a building with smooth rendered elevations and hipped slate roofs on both the house and the rear wing, featuring broad eaves. It has rendered end chimney stacks, including one on the wing. The front of the building has three bays with 12-pane hornless sash windows on the first floor. On the ground floor, there are wide tripartite sashes in each outer bay with 4:12:4 pane glazing, and a semi-circular headed niche is located in the center of the ground floor.

To the left end, there is a six-pane sash window that lights the basement. The rear wing contains an entry, and there are two upper 12-pane sashes that match those on the front. A rectangular timber porch with a moulded cornice is situated to the left, featuring a central half-glazed door with round arched lights, round arched windows on each side, and two additional windows on both side elevations. The front has four overlights, and there are two on each side, along with a renewed 24-pane sash window to the right.
