Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a house dating to the early 16th century or earlier, with substantial additions and alterations in 1682, 1883, and 1925. It is constructed of red brick, sandstone, and timber framing, with a plain tile roof punctuated by two brick ridge stacks and an external stack to the south. The building has a rectangular plan with two cross wings. The south wing is of brick, but is believed to incorporate an earlier timber frame, and possesses a roof structure of massive timbers within the later roof. The north wing was added in 1925 by T H Thorpe of Derby.

The east elevation has six bays. The central three bays are constructed of massive, well-cut stone blocks, with a chamfered plinth and a moulded stone first-floor string course that steps up over the central doorway. C19 cross windows are situated on either side of the doorway. Above the doorway is a lintel inscribed "Restored by/Revd J G Croker/1883/Revd B Poole/1682.” A small single-light window is flanked by C19 three-light wooden casements on the first floor. A gabled bay to the left features a wooden cross window to the ground floor and a three-light window above. A similar gabled bay to the right has a three-light, segment-headed window to the ground floor, with a three-light window above. An outer bay contains a doorway and a small window above.

Inside, a room in the south wing retains C17 panelling, as does some panelling made from old box pews. An upper room features a C17 moulded cornice.
