The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a house that was formerly a parsonage, built in the late 18th century with an early 19th-century addition. It features red brick construction with hipped roofs made of black unglazed pantiles and slate. The building consists of two sections, each two storeys high; the left section has two bays and is three bays deep, while the right section has two bays and is two bays deep.

The principal facade faces south, with the earlier left section under a hipped roof covered in black glazed pantiles, adorned with modillions at the wide eaves. It includes recessed sash windows with glazing bars arranged in a 4 x 4 pane configuration, with one on the ground floor left and two on the first floor. There is a doorcase to the left featuring an open pediment, a fanlight with glazing bars, and a panelled part-glazed door. The higher right section, dating from the early 19th century, has a hipped slate roof and also features recessed sash windows with glazing bars.

The left return to the west has three bays and is two storeys high, with a hipped roof and an axial stack to the left. The ground floor has recessed sash windows with 5 x 5 panes in the first and third bays, topped with renewed segmental arches. The first floor has three recessed sash windows under flat arches, with glazing bars in a 4 x 5 pane arrangement. There is a single-storey porch at the centre with a hipped roof made of black glazed pantiles, which is an early 20th-century addition.

To the north, there is a 19th-century two-storey addition, and to the east, there are lean-to glazed additions that do not hold special interest. Inside the 18th-century section, the roof was renewed in the 19th century using sawn soft timbers. There are two staircases: one in the centre of the west range, which is curved, very steep, with an open string design, stick balusters, and a wreathed pine handrail that is ramped at the top; and a second staircase at the rear of the south doorway, which is a later addition, also curved with an open string design, featuring a wreathed mahogany handrail inlaid with ebony and mother-of-pearl over the newel, along with stick balusters. The ground floor room in the 19th-century section has a moulded cornice on the ceiling.
