Description

The Rectory is a house built around 1820, likely designed by H.H. Seward for the Church Commissioners. It is constructed of ashlar stone and has a roof made of Lakeland slate. The garden side features two storeys and a basement with three bays. The basement includes one slatted window and another with small panes and iron glazing bars. On the ground floor, there are two tripartite sash windows, while the first floor has three 9-pane sash windows. There is a one-bay lower extension on the right side with 9-pane sashes on both floors.

The entrance side also has two storeys and three bays, featuring a central flat-topped stone porch with a door that has six flush panels. There are 12-pane sash windows on either side of the porch and a 9-pane sash window above. All openings have chamfered reveals. To the left of the entrance, there is a one-bay extension with a single-storey lean-to in front. The building has a gabled roof with ridged coping, two stone gable stacks, and an additional similar stack on the extension.

Inside, the Rectory contains six-panelled doors and an early 19th-century staircase.
