The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a rectory that has been converted into a private house, dating from around 1740. It is built of brick and features a roof made of black glazed pantiles. The building has 2½ storeys and is arranged in five bays, presenting a symmetrical facade. The central entrance consists of a half-glazed door set in panelled reveals, topped by a pedimented hood supported by two Tuscan columns with Ionic capitals. The windows are set beneath gauged skewback arches, with 20th-century sashes on the ground floor and 18th-century sashes on the upper floors, all featuring glazing bars. A deep modillion eaves cornice runs below the hipped roof, which has stacks on its side slopes. At the rear, there is a two-storey service wing that is lit by casement windows. Inside, there is an open cut staircase with three turned balusters on each tread and a ramped and wreathed handrail.
