Description
The Rectory is an early 19th-century facade attached to an 18th-century or earlier house, located on Church Road in Willesborough. The building is two storeys high and constructed of brown brick, with the sides being tile hung. It features a cornice and parapet, as well as a stringcourse. On the first floor, there are three sash windows, each with three round-headed lights and Regency blinds. The ground floor has two bay windows. The entrance is marked by a doorcase set in a wide segmental-headed arch, with a door made up of six fielded panels, flanked by two narrow lights and topped with a low segmental fanlight that spans the entire width.
