The regular form of this presbytery is enlivened by the reuse of a fine eighteenth century doorcase and by the rendered window surrounds to the front elevation. The building retains many of the historic windows with their early nineteenth-century window glass. The presbytery forms part of a group with the neighbouring Saint Nicholas of Myra Church, its statuary and grotto.
