Description
The Old Rectory is a house dating from the early 18th century, with alterations and additions made around 1900. It is built of tuck pointed red brick and features a hipped tile roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a plaster plat band, a moulded wooden cornice, and a coped parapet that includes embrasures for two flat-topped dormers with two-light casements. There is an end stack to the left and an off-centre stack to the right. The facade consists of five bays with glazing bar sashes that have exposed wooden boxes. The central entrance has a four-panelled door with a rectangular overlight, framed by a doorcase with reeded architrave, Doric pilasters, and cut brackets that support a boxed triangular pediment set back to the left. There are later projecting segmental bays on the right and at the rear. Inside, the house features a two-flight dog-leg staircase with square newels, turned balusters, and a moulded handrail, along with fireplaces that have lugged architraves and pulvinated friezes, and a shell niche buffet.
