Probably built as the priest's house to St Nicholas's Church. Early C15 altered.

Stone plinth; ground floor brick with stone quoins; first floor half-timbered. Two

storeys; 3 bays, the centre one advanced, gabled and containing the porch. Ground

floor apparently underbuilt when the porch was added probably in the late C16. All

windows mullioned, in stone on the ground floor and in wood on the first. On the

right hand return, a window with rusticated tracery. To the left, a modern staircase

of C1910. Inside, some simple C17 panelling and the roof of 3 trusses forming

2 centred arches.
