Description

The Old Rectory is a house, formerly a rectory, likely built in the 17th century and altered in the mid-18th century and 19th century. It is constructed of pebbledashed rubble with a stone slate roof, featuring two storeys and four bays. The windows have glazing bars; those on the first floor have stone surrounds with a slight chamfer and were originally designed with two lights, except for the left-hand window which had three lights and now includes a central flat-faced mullion. To the left of the first bay on the ground floor is a window with a cement surround. The window in the first bay is similar to those above but is taller and also features a central flat-faced mullion. The third and fourth bays have 19th-century plain stone surrounds, with a similar window located between these bays. The left-hand window also includes a central flat-faced mullion. In the second bay, there is a 19th-century gabled porch with a chamfered door surround that has a Latin inscription around a pointed arch. The building has chimneys on the gables with projecting stacks, as well as one to the left of the porch. Inside, there is a dog-leg stair with a closed string, turned balusters, and a moulded handrail. The left-hand room features exposed axial main ceiling joists, while the right-hand rooms were altered in the 19th century and have boxed beams.
