The Old Vicarage

This building is Grade II listed, and stands on Gainsborough's Ashcroft Road.

"Vigilans" was built in the Victorian "Tudor Gothic" style in 1887 as a Seminary College, and also acted as the Vicarage for the St. John the Divine Parish Church.

For a great many years in the Twentieth Century it stood empty and apparantly unloved, and then was suddenly converted into flats towards the end of the 1980s.
