3-window fenestration, outer in form of 2-storey rectangular
mullioned and transomed bay windows with Tudor arched lights, set

quatrefoil panel with shield motif to each gable. South side: 3-
window fenestration, all mullioned and transomed with Tudor arched

fenestration; similar stair window below gable to recessed centre.
Left gable has cluster of 3 octagonal moulded chimney shafts; long
wing attached below with 2-light mullioned casements. Two-light

Interior: stone cantilevered open well staircase in stair hall.
Moulded 4-centred archway divides stair from outer hall. This
large vicarage, probably built by Lord Sherborne, may have been
designed by Anthony Salvin who had been carrying out work at
Sherborne Park since 1841. There are stylistic similarities with
Scotney Castle in Kent, also by Salvin.
