The vicarages were huge, draughty, and a bit bleak as far as I can remember. Although the Vicar (ours was the Rector) was usually not well off, they would have at least one servant to help with the heavy work and do the chores. A section of the house would originally have been "below stairs" which referred to the servant's quarters. Much of the accommodation for the church incumbent was built with money from the local rich people, and the parishes themselves were often very well off, with monies being left to them over the generations.
The parish was responsible for caring for people who could not support themselves, and then they had the bright idea of joining together to build workhouses................
But that's a different story!!
