The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a former rectory, now divided into three separate properties, dating from the mid-18th century with later additions and alterations. The main block is built of red brick in a Flemish bond with flared headers. A right-hand block is also of red brick with flared headers, but in an English bond. The left-hand block is of gault brick. The central and right-hand blocks have clay tile roofs, while the left-hand block has a slate roof.

The main block is five bays wide and two storeys high, presenting a symmetrical facade. It has four sash windows with glazing bars on the ground floor, and five leaded mullion and transom windows on the first floor, all dating from the 19th century. The ground floor windows are topped with gauged brick flat heads. A part-glazed door is centrally positioned in a moulded surround. Gable end stacks are integral to the building.

The right-hand block is one storey high with an attic, and features three 2-light casements with glazing bars on the ground floor. The attic has one box dormer and three gabled dormers. A 20th-century door is located on the left-hand side, and there’s a red brick ridge stack.

The left-hand block, of 19th-century origin, has sash windows on the ground floor and casements on the first floor.
