Description

The Old Rectory is a former rectory that has been converted into a private residence. It dates from the early to mid-18th century and is constructed of red brick with a hipped plain-tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic. The main facade faces south and features five sash windows with glazing bars set in flush frames, each topped by slightly cambered brick arches. The central doorway is framed by an early 19th-century enclosed flat-roofed wooden porch, which includes pilasters and an entablature, leading to a six-panel door and a semi-circular fanlight with glazing bars. The eaves are adorned with a wooden paired modillion cornice, and there are three shallow-pedimented dormers.

On the garden (east) front, there are six windows, including a three-light curved bay on the ground floor, with windows matching those on the main facade. The doorway here is also framed by pilasters and features a frieze, a triangular pediment, and inset double doors with panelled reveals. Inside, there is a good staircase with two slender turned balusters per tread. The two main ground floor rooms are notable for their carved marble mantlepieces and moulded cornices.
