The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a former rectory, now a house, dating from the early 18th century, with an addition constructed between 1861 and 1862. The 18th-century elevations are of red brick with flared headers, while the Victorian addition uses red and orange brick. Both have old tile roofs. The building is five bays wide and has two storeys plus dormers. The Victorian range extends across the north side and projects to the west to create an L-shaped plan, also with two storeys and an attic. The west front features a gabled Victorian wing with a two-storey flat bay window, and the original 18th-century section has a central door with a mid-19th century Doric porch. There are two sashes to the left of the porch, a bay window to the right, and five sashes to the first floor with early 18th-century thick glazing bars. Three hipped dormers have two-light casements, and there are flanking stacks of thin old bricks. The south front shows two distinct builds: the two left bays are from the early 18th century and retain thick upper-floor glazing bars to the sashes. The right-hand bays have recessed box sashes and a band course. The building was likely extended around the mid-18th century to create a double-pile house. The interior features mid-19th-century fireplaces and metal rosettes to the cornice friezes in the downstairs rooms.
