Description
The Old Vicarage is a former vicarage dating from the Tudor period, constructed from squared greenish stone with slate roofs. The building has a roughly square plan, with a projecting crosswing on the south and west fronts. The south front has three bays and features a prominent crosswing gable to the right, adorned with ornate fretted bargeboards and a wrought iron finial. An attic blind loop sits in the gable, and the first floor has a two-light window while the ground floor features a three-light window. All windows are set in chamfered surrounds, and are small-paned casements with timber mullions; the ground floor windows have mullions and transoms. A large stone chimney runs across the crosswing’s ridge, with a chamfered plinth and corniced top, displaying incised lines that appear to denote four shafts in line. A smaller, square west chimney stack is located on the main range. The main range to the left features a three-light window on each floor, and a two-light window above the front door, which is set within a timber gabled porch. The porch mirrors the crosswing’s detailing with ornate bargeboards, an iron finial, a slate roof, and chamfered octagonal posts. The doorway is Tudor-arched, with Tudor-arched panels to the door itself. The west side of the building is similarly rendered with plain bargeboards on its twin gables, although the back gable lacks a chimney. The east side replicates the south front, with a projecting gable to the right, containing an attic blind loop and three-light windows on each floor. A two-light window is positioned above a three-light window on the range to the left, which is the side of the crosswing. The interior of the property has not been inspected.
