Description

The Old Rectory is a former rectory, now a house, built in 1827 by Thomas Boyfield. It is constructed of ashlar and features a hipped slate roof with two ashlar wall stacks. The building has two storeys and a three-bay front. The central entrance consists of tripartite glazed double doors framed by a stone architrave and topped with a low pediment. On either side of the entrance are single canted bay windows that contain glazing bar sashes and have plain parapets. The first floor features three glazing bar sashes, while the right-hand side includes two-light casements with Gothick tracery. The building is incorrectly labeled as "Rectory" on the OS map.

Local climate

The Old Rectory sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 730 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 80% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
