The Old Vicarage, number 219 Preston Road, was built in the late 18th century. The front wall is constructed of coursed rubble stone, the other walls random rubble stone, all under a slate roof. There is a rear wing. The house lies below pavement level as the result of the realignment and raising of the main road. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1096711 Preston is a coastal village, a suburb of Weymouth in Dorset, some 3 miles northeast of Weymouth town centre. The village has a long history of settlement, with the remains of a Roman temple and a Stone Age hill fort, Chalbury Camp. Preston has strong links with the Wesley family, the founders of Methodism. South of the village, towards the shore, are a number of highly unattractive holiday parks.
