The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a large stone house dating to the mid-17th century, with substantial additions made in the late 19th century, specifically in 1878. It is built of coursed stone with freestone dressings. The steeply pitched roof is clad in Collyweston stone. A band runs along the floor level.

The original part of the house has five bays and features 2-light stone mullion and transom windows set within stone architraves. The central doorway has a moulded stone architrave and a rectangular fanlight, now with a 19th-century glazed door. Two small hipped dormers are present in the roof. Ashlar stacks are topped with cornices. A round-headed stair window is located at the rear.

To the right (north-east) is a late 19th-century addition, built of stone and featuring a hipped Collyweston slate roof with higher eaves. This addition includes a two-storey porch with a hipped roof and a round-arched doorway, along with stone mullion and transom windows.

Inside the original section of the house is a dog leg staircase with a moulded string and rail, turned balusters and square newels. Most rooms have moulded plaster cornices, some containing chimney pieces with dog ear architraves. The ground floor rooms retain plain panelling, and one room has a moulded arch with a keyblock.
