The former vicarage at Broadclyst is, in its present form, an apparently early 19th century house constructed in around 1820. The rebuillding has left little sign of and few dateable features relating to any earlier houses on the site; however, the superficially regular appearance of the present building hides a more complex history. The possibility remains that some elements of a medieval parsonage house, or perhaps a late medieval or early post-medieval mansion may survive buried within the existing fabric. The physical evidence from the structure suggests that the house may have been rebuilt in the mid 18th century, and was then remodelled again in around 1820. Detailed specifications and drawings survive among the diocesan records. Other details: Plans, photographs.
