Description
The Rectory is a late 17th century to early 18th century house that was refashioned around 1860. It is constructed of coursed stone with freestone dressings and features a steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof with coped gable ends. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a five-window range. The windows are 19th century stone mullion three-light windows with dripmoulds, and there is a central gabled porch from the 19th century. The house also includes 19th century gabled dormers and end stacks. A late 18th century rear wing is present, along with late 19th century additions to the side and rear.
