Description
The Old Rectory is a house, likely dating from around 1824. It was originally a rectory and is constructed from limestone ashlar with a hipped roof of Welsh slate and brick end stacks. The design is in the Regency style, with a double-depth plan and a symmetrical appearance. The building is two storeys high and has a five-window front, with hipped wings on either side. A stone porch with Doric columns provides access to the left of centre, where a four-panelled door is set beneath a decorative fanlight. Stone lintels top the sash windows, and there are bracketed eaves. Inside, a round-arched stairwell is visible on the left side, while a lunette with a wrought iron grill is on the right. The rear of the building features sashes and a semi-circular bay window to the left. Internally, the house retains four-panelled doors, a stone-flag floor, a marble fireplace, and moulded cornices. A dog-leg staircase with winders is also present. A lead pump, dated 1824, is located in a room to the right.
