The Rectory

The Rectory is a house built in 1903 by W Brierley. It is constructed of brick in Flemish bond and has a Westmorland slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three first-floor windows on the entrance front. The entrance includes a six-fielded-panel door flanked by fixed windows, all beneath a canopy supported by elaborate scrolled consoles. To the left, there is a low fixed window and a tall two-light transomed staircase window. The first floor has casement windows, and there is a dentilled eaves course. The chimney stacks rise through the pitch of the roof to the left, with a ridge stack to the right, all featuring round-headed side panels and cogged bands.

On the garden front, the central two-storey section has two canted bays separated by a central window that projects forward and breaks the roof line. The windows are segmental-arched sashes with glazing bars, except for a half-glazed door with a casement above to the right. There is also a central flat dormer. Inside, there is a fanlight with decorative glazing bars above the inner hall door, and an original open-string staircase with turned balusters and a ramped handrail.
