Old Vicarage, Tadcaster

Last updated March 28, 2024

The Old Vicarage is a historic building in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, England.

The building was constructed in the late 13th century, probably as a priest's house. It was rebuilt in about 1500, and has been altered and extended in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. It served for many years as a vicarage, then as a boarding school, and later as the local headquarters of the British Legion. It was Grade II* listed in 1992, and was most recently restored in 1995.^[1]^[2]

The two-storey building is constructed of limestone, infilled in places with brick and breeze blocks. It has a slate roof, with a single gable and a stone chimney. Many of the doors and windows have been blocked over the years, with others created, but early features include a round-headed door on the north-west front. Inside, the former hall was subdivided with stud walls, which survive on the first floor. The roof has a king post structure.^[2]
