{5} The vicarage was ordained in 1225. It lay immediately to the south east of the churchyard in 1725 as today. The present building is of 19th century date.

{6} A level II/III building recording survey undertaken prior to a program of renovation. The survey indicates that the building originally dates from the turn of the 18th century with later major works to both gables and façade in the late 19th century. Reroofing nd other works took place in the 20th century. Plaster walling in the attic space appears to be a 20th century application.
