Description
The Old Rectory is a rectory that has been converted into a house, believed to date from the early 18th century, with some parts possibly being older. The front of the building was modified in the early 19th century. It features a rendered exterior and a plain tile roof, with a double-depth layout. The structure has two storeys and attics, set on a plinth with a plat band, and a moulded cornice beneath the parapet. The cornice breaks through the parapet to create a central steep-sided triangular gable that is bottomless.
There are four shallow buttresses that extend just below the eaves cornice, with bands running across them; one is located towards each end and one on the outer side of each central stack. The gable ends are coped, and there are four rendered stacks: one at each end, with the right stack projecting slightly, and one on either side of the central gable. The building has two gabled dormers, one located between the inner and outer stacks on each side.
The central gable features one glazing-bar sash window with a hoodmould. The front has a regular arrangement of five slightly recessed glazing-bar sash windows, each with hoodmoulds; there are three in the centre and one in each outer bay. The central entrance has a 20th-century glazed door, which is also under a hoodmould. The interior has not been inspected.
