Description
The Old Rectory is a house that was originally built as a rectory in the 17th century. It features a three-bay rear range with 19th-century alterations and an early 19th-century front range. The building is constructed from stone rubble and has a plain-tile roof with decorative wooden eaves fascia and bargeboards. The front range has partly projecting brick stepped gable-end stacks, while the rear range includes a brick ridge stack and projecting stone gable-end stacks, which are now capped with tiles.
The structure has a square plan consisting of two parallel ranges and is two storeys high with a cellar. The south front displays a two-storey, three-window arrangement of restored two-light casements, with the lower casements replaced by projecting canted bay windows. There is a central doorway with a gabled canopy supported by carved brackets. On the right (east) side, there are 20th-century two-light casements on either side of the stack. The north side features three-over-six sashes in gabled semi-dormers above the casements. The interior has not been inspected.
