Description
The Old Rectory is the servants' wing of an old rectory, now functioning as a house. It dates from the late 18th century and has mid-20th century alterations. The building features ashlar stonework, partly roughcast, with Welsh slate roofs that have a parapet at the north-east end and a hipped roof at the south-west end, along with ridge stacks. It is part two storeys and part two storeys with an attic and dormers, arranged in three plus three bays.
The three-bay section to the south-west has three ground and first floor 9-pane sash windows that are irregularly spaced. The main entrance, located to the right of centre, features a 20th-century doorcase with an open pediment and pilasters, and the door itself has six raised and fielded panels with panelled reveals, which are likely original. The three-bay section to the north-east contains two 6-pane sash windows and a 20th-century window on the ground floor, along with three first floor 6-pane sash windows and three gabled dormers that have 2-light 20th-century casements.
The main part of the rectory was demolished in the mid-20th century due to collapse from subsidence. The building was constructed during the tenure of Dr. George Butt, who served from 1771 to 1795, and is situated near the new Church of St Mary, which was built in 1769.
