Description

The Old Rectory is a house built in 1632 by Dr. Snell, with a 20th-century extension added to the rear. The original structure is made of stone, while the extension is roughcast. The roof was missing during a survey in the late 1980s but has since been replaced. The building has two storeys and an attic, with two bays. On the ground floor, there are three-light ovolo-mullioned windows, and the first floor features three-light hollow-chamfered-mullioned windows with label moulds. The second bay includes a gabled two-light hollow-chamfered dormer. The central entrance has a recessed cambered head. The left side of the building has a basement and two drip moulds, with three-light windows on the ground floor, first floor, and attic. The right side has a two-light window on the ground floor, with the lintel of the original window visible on the edge. The interior has been gutted, but the first floor contains two fireplaces with Tudor heads, one of which is inscribed "1685/DOMINUM/GEORG:SNELL/FIERI:FECIT." There are two stacks at the rear, situated between the original house and the 20th-century extension.
