Description
The Old Rectory is a vicarage, now a house, built in 1856 by S.S. Teulon. It features squared and coursed limestone with ashlar dressings and a gabled artificial stone slate roof, along with lateral stone stacks. The building has a double-depth plan and is designed in the Domestic Gothic style, with a two-storey front.
The central porch showcases cusped woodwork and a canted roof, leading to a plank door with wrought-iron hinges set in a pointed chamfered doorway. Above the door, there is a shallow pointed-arched architrave with a one-light sash window, and two-light sashes are found in the left gable projection. The flush gable to the right has an external stack, while the double-gabled right side wall features similar windows and a canted bay window. To the left, there is a two-storey range with a half-hipped roof and a one-storey range with a stone end stack.
Inside, the rooms open from a hexagonal hall and have panelled doors. A dog-leg staircase with a pierced Gothic-style balustrade adds to the interior's character.
