Description
The Vicarage is a building in the Tudor/Jacobean Revival style, constructed over two storeys. It features rock-faced stone with ashlar dressings and a Roman tiled roof with swept eaves. The west elevation includes half dormer gables, a large external stack with offsets and a shield cartouche, as well as 2 and 3 light square-headed mullion and transom windows. A prominent steep gabled wooden porch with decorative bargeboards and cusped, pierced wooden tracery dominates the design, leading to a pointed arched doorway with a linenfold panelled door.
On the south elevation, there is a cross gable and half dormer, along with a two-storey canted bay that has a pitched tiled roof, string courses, and additional three-pane light windows on the ground floor under relieving arches; the lower bay has lost its glazing bars. The east elevation displays a double pile plan and a simple pointed arched service porch. The north elevation features more cross gables, two lateral stacks, and a large staircase window.
To the rear, there is a contemporary coach-house and stables. Inside, the principal rooms are arranged on either side of a lengthwise passage and showcase Tudor Revival style stone fireplaces with decorative spandrels, some incorporating tiles. The interior retains an almost complete range of decoratively moulded panelled doors, door surrounds, panelling, and shutters, as well as a set of service bells. The hall includes a dentilled inner door, and the wide stairwell is open to the roof, with a staircase that has a pierced quatrefoil balustrade.
