Description

The Woodlands is a house that was originally a rectory, built around 1830 with later additions and alterations. It features painted brick, with the front and left side rendered. The building has a double-span low-pitched slate hipped roof with wide eaves and valley stacks. It is two storeys high and has a three-window front with a recessed center. The windows are glazing bar sashes with rectangular panes and thin glazing bars. The central entrance includes a flat-roofed porch with a wreathed radial fanlight above a half-glazed door, and there is a 20th-century half-glazed inner door. On the left side, there are two canted bay windows on the ground floor, and a service range is set back to the right. The house is also known as The Old Rectory.
