The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory, formerly known as Horton Rectory, is a building dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, which was re-faced in the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick and features an old tile roof. The central section of the building has two storeys and an attic with a hipped gable. The attic includes a semi-circular three-light wood mullion window in the central gable. On the first floor, there are three double-hung sash windows with glazing bars set in reveals, complete with cills and flat rubbed brick arches. The ground floor features two large eighteen-pane windows that extend to the ground, located to the left of a wood doorcase with narrow panels and an open pediment supported by consoles. The door has an arch with an archivolt and a fielded panel reveal, and it is a plain door with an upper half of glass and glazing bars, topped by a traceried semi-circular fanlight. The building is flanked by two-storey plain walled gables with moulded bargeboards. Inside, the first floor contains panelled rooms dating from around 1700, and some old timber framing is visible on the ground and first floors, including two jowl posts in a small bedroom.
