Description
The Old Rectory is a house, formerly the Rectory House, dating to around 1840. It is constructed of gault brick with slate roofs. The house is two storeys high and double pile, with a front and a returned garden facade. The four-bay entrance front features two ground-floor and four first-floor sash windows with glazing bars, each beneath a rubbed brick flat arch. A brick porch, dating from around 1900 and featuring a parapet, was added. A first-floor plat band and a wooden cornice are present. The three-bay garden front includes three ground-floor and three first-floor sash windows with glazing bars. Pilaster strips are visible, and the centre bay on the first floor is recessed. The building has hipped roofs with wooden eaves, and two ridge stacks. A service wing projects to the north and contains a ground-floor window with Gothic tracery.
