Former coach house to vicarage. Early C18 with some mid C19 alteration.
Large squared rubble with roughly-tooled quoins and dressings; Welsh slate
roof. East elevation 2 storeys, 2 + 2+ 2 bays. Taller central part has
blocked coach entrance and doorway, with blocked loft door and boarded window
under shouldered lintel above; gables with raised coping; small left end
stack. End parts each have central doorway and upper windows set directly
beneath eaves; ground-floor openings to right have later shouldered lintels.
Windows mostly boarded or slatted, except those at ground floor left which
are blocked. Roofs hip-ended. Rear elevation: Central part shows boarded
double doors under timber lintel, and timber dovecote on roof slope; right
end part shows stable door between part-slatted windows, all in C19 chamfered
surrounds.

The C18 vicarage probably stood on the east of the church approach; Archdeacon
Singleton, writing in the early C19, records that 'the late vicar built a boys
school over his coach house, a whimsical position'.
