The Principal'S House

The Principal's House, formerly known as The Old Rectory, is a rectory that has been converted into a house. It was built in 1714 and underwent early 19th-century alterations. The building is constructed of red brick on a plinth made of red and grey sandstone rubble, and it features slate roofs. It has an L-shaped plan, two storeys, and a gable-lit attic.

The right-hand section of the house consists of four bays and includes glazing bar sashes with exposed boxes. Two of the ground-floor windows on the right have been altered, likely in the late 18th or early 19th century, to create a segmental-headed tripartite glazing bar sash with a red sandstone keystone. There is a four-panelled door in the second bay from the left, which has panelled reveals and a moulded architrave. A mid-19th-century painted brick porch with panels flanking a round arch and a moulded cornice above is also present.

To the left, there is a gabled wing that projects at right angles and was altered in the early 19th century. It features a segmental-headed attic glazing bar sash with an exposed box. There is also a possibly late 19th or early 20th-century two-storey canted bay on a brick plinth, with channelled rusticated bottom panels and a wooden dentil eaves cornice at the flat top. The glazing bar sashes have moulded architraves, with the first-floor windows lugged at the centre and the ground-floor windows lugged at the sides. The central ground-floor window has a section of moulded cornice above it, and there is a horned tripartite glazing bar sash on the right-hand return front.

A date stone in the right-hand gable end reads "PS/1714". Inside, there is an early 19th-century staircase featuring stick balusters and a moulded wreathed handrail with a columnular newel.
