Description

The Old Rectory is a vicarage, now a house, dating from the mid-18th century, with substantial additions from the early 19th century and the late 19th century. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with gauged brick, ordinary brick, and stone dressings. The roofs are tiled, hipped over the early 19th-century section, and have brick gable end stacks to the mid-18th-century part, and brick ridge stacks to the other sections. A dentilled brick eaves band runs along all sections of the building.

The original house is four bays wide, with a two-bay early 19th-century addition to the south and a five-bay late 19th-century addition to the north, all parts being two storeys high. The west-facing facade of the mid-18th-century section has four segment-headed wooden cross windows with cambered gauged brick heads on the ground floor, and four similar windows above. A doorcase in the early 19th-century section is recessed to the south, featuring an early 19th-century glazed panelled door, reused mid-18th century pilasters, and a bell-canted leaded porch roof. Above the door is a glazing bar sash window under a flat arch. The south elevation has a large canted bay window to the east with a central glazed door and glazing bar sashes under flat arches on either side. To the west is another sash window. Above, similar windows are arranged in a matching pattern. The late 19th-century north addition has three-light casement windows with segment brick heads.

The interior contains a plain early 19th-century staircase and a fine Adam-style fireplace in the south-east room.
