Old Vicarage (Shilbottle)

  • Description

    "The old vicarage at Shilbottle was once a 16th or 17th century pele tower. It was first recorded in 1415. The tower now forms one corner of the vicarage. In the east wall are an arched window and a square-headed window. These are thought to be 19th century additions. The house was altered in the 19th century; a north wing was built in 1851 and the entire building was restored in 1863. The tower itself has thick sandstone walls and the basement has a stone vault...."
