Description

The Old Rectory is a former rectory built in the earlier 18th century, with later additions and alterations from the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick with stone coping on the parapets and features an old clay tile roof. The building has a double pile plan that originally extended further south and is topped with a hipped two-span roof.

The east elevation has a ground floor that includes a late 19th-century addition, which features two tripartite sash windows with cambered heads flanking part-glazed double doors that have a rectangular fanlight above. The windows are set into slightly projecting bays, and the entire block is capped with a parapet. On the first and second floors, there are five flush sash windows with glazing bars, each set under gauged brick flat arches. The first-floor windows also retain their interior moulded wood shutters. Multiple chimney stacks extend from both gable ends. The north elevation includes a porch addition that was added in 1879.
