Description
The Old Rectory is an early 19th-century house located on Low Mill Lane, north of Addingham. Originally known as St. Peter’s Rectory, it is constructed from hammer-dressed stone with ashlar dressings and a stone slate roof.
The house is of a double-depth plan, with a symmetrical three-bay facade. It features a plinth, rusticated quoins, and an eaves cornice topped with a triangular pediment above the windows. The front door is situated within an architrave and a semicircular arch, incorporating impost blocks and a carved keystone, and is topped by a glazed fanlight. A modern six-panelled door fills the opening. Large windows with raised, plain stone surrounds flank the doorway, each containing two panes. The ground-floor windows have moulded imposts. Cornices are ornamented with consoles. The gables incorporate moulded coping and dressed stone stacks.
A semicircular-arched stairwindow is visible on the rear elevation, adorned with moulded imposts and a carved keystone. The right-hand return wall mirrors the front facade, with two bays of windows; the first-floor windows here contain sixteen panes.
The interior of the house has not been inspected.
