Description

Church Cottage, which is located on the western side of Vicarage Road adjacent to the church. Church Cottage, which is located on the western side of Vicarage Road adjacent to the church, is a brick building situated slightly back from the road behind a low brick wall. In 1813 the building housed a schoolroom and it is likely that the schoolmaster also lived here. Due to the gradient of the road the building is a prominent feature within the street and its simple principal elevation provides an attractive foreground to views of the church. 2.61 The elevated position of 78 Vicarage Road and Church Cottage and their relationship to the road helps to re-define the edge of the street and channel views up the hill. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Marsworth. (B1).
