Description
The Old Rectory is a house that was originally built as a rectory around 1800, with some minor alterations made later. The building is constructed from roughly coursed limestone rubble and has a stuccoed front. It features a hipped slate roof that is divided into two sections at right angles at the rear. The structure stands three storeys tall and has a moulded eaves cornice and floor bands on the front.
There are three windows on the front, which are 16-paned glazing bar sashes set in plain stone surrounds. The second-floor windows are smaller, and there are 19th-century casements on the left and right sides. The central entrance boasts a six-panel door adorned with a fluted frieze and a fanlight that has a wreathed and radiating design. On each side of the house, there are two integral end stacks with moulded dripstones and capping.
At the rear, the glazing bar sashes continue, and there is a tall, narrow round-headed window in the center that features Gothic glazing bars and lights the staircase. Although the interior was not inspected during the last survey in September 1987, it was noted to have an original staircase with a ramped handrail and stick balusters, as well as panelled window shutters.
