The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a house dating from the 16th and 18th centuries, constructed from rendered and painted brick with a plain tiled roof. It stands two storeys high with an attic on a plinth, featuring a plat band and a moulded paired modillion eaves cornice beneath a half-hipped roof. The building has stacks at the left end, right end, and centre right, along with three flat-roofed dormers. The original early 18th-century block displays regular fenestration, including two glazing bar sashes on the first floor, a central round-headed sunk panel, and four glazing bar sashes on the ground floor. The central door consists of six fielded panels topped by a traceried rectangular fanlight and an open pediment on consoles. To the right, the house has been extended by one bay, which includes one sash window on each floor, maintaining the plinth, plat, and cornice across the facade. At the rear left, there is a recessed two-storey coach house with a hipped roof and two glazing bar sashes on each floor. Inside, the rear wing features an exposed inglenook and a wooden mullioned window, which is now internal, along with chamfered ceiling joists that may indicate timber framing in its original construction. The interior also includes a three-storey dog-leg stair with turned balusters and dado panelling, simple dado panelling in the rooms, and archways in the corridors supported by pilasters and imposts.
