Old Vicarage, Grantchester, Grade II listed clergy house in Grantchester, England

The Old Vicarage combines brick ground floor construction with timber-framed upper level, featuring tiled roofs and original red brick stacks from 1684.

The building served as a residence for local clergy until 1820, when it transitioned from church ownership into private hands and underwent several modifications.

Poet Rupert Brooke composed his famous poem 'The Old Vicarage, Grantchester' in 1912 while residing at this property as a tenant.

The property stands next to The Orchard tea garden, one minute walking distance from the Church of St Andrew and St Mary in Grantchester.

A sundial crafted from medieval ecclesiastical limestone adorns the garden, while the interior preserves two original clunch fireplace surrounds from its construction period.
