modified, but has a central hall, entered from the S, with
principal staircase rising to the right.
2 storeys, 3 windows; 12-pane sashes, widely spaced, in plain
reveals and on stone sills. The central panelled door is
covered by a C20 glazed porch with tent hood. The return front

and the remains of a former glazed canopy, and the E side is
in 4 bays. The back wall has been rebuilt, following
separation from the former service wing. The large stack, with
a reeded edge to the capping, is offset on the ridge towards
the left.

attached to the Vicarage as a service wing, and known as St
