The Old Vicarage is a beautiful period house with substantial rooms and extensive private gardens overlooking open countryside. The property was constructed in circa 1901 by John Oldrid-Scott, son of the famous architect Sir Gilbert Scott. Of note are the impressive drawing room and dining room, together with the large and bright kitchen/breakfast room. There are six bedrooms, including two suites, and two further family bathrooms. The property also benefits from extensive walk-in attic storage. Many of the rooms are dual aspect with views either over the gardens or open countryside. The grounds are in excess of an acre and are divided into formal and informal areas of lawns, deep herbaceous and shrub borders, together with a variety of fruit trees. On the drive adjacent to the house, there is a very useful timber garage block and a machinery store.
