Cadw's description
Location
Next to the Church of the HolyTrinity in a close-knit group.
History
Probably contemporary with the extension to Holy Trinity Church in 1886.
Exterior
Coursed squared rock faced red sandstone and wrought iron. Dwarf walls capped by flat coping stones, wrought iron spear head railings. Square gatepiers with pyramid caps. Double iron gates with spear heads.
Reason for designation
Included for its special interest as the entrance to an early Victorian vicarage of definite character designed by T H Wyatt which, together with the Almshouses and the Church, forms a coherently designed group.
