Description
The Rectory and Rectory Cottage date to the late 18th century, with 19th and 20th century alterations. The building is constructed of coursed rubble and brick, with a slate roof. There are three ridge stacks and two gable stacks, one featuring a coped gable and kneelers to the west. Brick dentilated eaves are present.
The Rectory, located to the right, features a projecting, flat-roofed porch with a four-panel door. This is flanked by single glazing bar sashes, with two sliding sashes to the right and a plain sash to the left. Above, three glazing bar sashes are visible, with a sliding sash to the right and a gabled through-eaves dormer with a glazing bar sash to the left. The cottage, to the left, has a projecting 20th-century gabled porch with a six-panel door. To the left of the door are two sliding sashes with glazing bars. Above, a narrow window is flanked by single sliding sashes, also with glazing bars; all windows have painted wooden lintels.
