Description
The Rectory is a house built in the early 18th century, constructed from stone and stucco, and topped with a slate roof. It features a symmetrical front (east) with two storeys and an attic, comprising five windows. The steep hipped roof includes three dormers that have fully-moulded cornices, with triangular pediments on either side of a segmental pediment, and casement windows. The ashlar walls are topped with stone coping on a deep parapet, which has panels above the openings. There is an early 19th-century Gothic weathering band below the parapet and at the first-floor level, along with rubbed brick arches that are cambered at the first floor and flat at the ground floor. The building has a deep plinth that is cut away for the ground floor cills, and the windows are sashes in exposed frames.
The doorway features a plain frame that encloses a Gothic fanlight and double doors with half-glazing, accompanied by narrow sidelights. The rear (west) elevation is asymmetrical, with four upper windows. This side has been stuccoed and includes a plain parapet and a high plinth, with panels on the parapet above the openings, and sashes in exposed frames. A 20th-century brick porch has been added, with the old wider inner door featuring panelled reveals. The end walls are primarily made of ironstone with brick dressings, and the north side has an old leaded casement in the attic gable. An old hopper-head is located at the northeast corner.
Inside, the Rectory contains panelled doors within architraves, and one room features 18th-century pinewood panelling, 17th-century panelling below the dado, a reused 17th-century door, an 18th-century cupboard in niche form, and a stone fire-surround with a simple moulding.
