What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey parochial house, built c.1870, with recent porch to front (south) and extensions to rear (north). Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed openings with two-over-two timber sliding sash window to first floor and replacement one-over-one timber windows to ground floor. Segmental-headed door opening set in blind arch with square-headed timber panelled door and overlight. Outbuildings to rear (north), comprising single- and two-storey buildings with pitched slate roofs and rendered walls. Rendered walls to rear and side (west).
A fine example of the typical scale and form of the parochial houses which were built throughout the country in the latter part of the nineteenth century. This building retains much of its character and historic fabric, while the related outbuildings add to its context and setting.
