Description
The Old Rectory is a house, originally a rectory, dating to 1696, with extensions and an upper storey added around the 1860s. It is constructed of washed brick with a Welsh slate roof, and incorporates four brick chimneys. The building has an L-shaped plan and a three-storey, four-bay south front. A brick band runs along the first floor level. The windows are mostly 2 and 3-light casements with glazing bars, and an upper panel featuring intersecting tracery; these windows are set within flat, wedged brick heads. The third bay features a two-storey gabled porch with a smaller wooden trellis porch sheltering a half-glazed front door. A 2-light window is positioned above the door. An added wing to the right includes a two-storey canted bay window with windows set within stone surrounds that complement the original design. The interior, which has not been inspected, is believed to contain doors with two fielded panels, panelled shutters, substantial ceiling beams on the original ground floor, and a turned baluster closed-string staircase, according to provisional listing records.
