Description
The Rectory, now a house, dates from the 17th century, with its front remodeled around 1750 and extended in the 19th and 20th centuries. It features random rubble construction, rendered at the front, with ashlar coped verges and kneelers on a pantiled roof. The building is two storeys high and has three windows, all of which are sashes in exposed boxes. There is a central panelled and glass door beneath a flat timber hood, and a coved timber cornice. To the left, there is a 20th-century single-storey extension with a pitched roof. The house has cellars beneath part of it, and the roof is raised in the centre to accommodate small upper sashes with four panes. The rear of the main block has three first-floor windows, all with timber lintels; the central window is a sash, while the outer ones are casements. To the left, there is a single three-light window, and to the right, a pair of two-light windows with a central mullion, along with timber gutters.
Inside, there is a central open-string, open-well staircase leading to the first floor, featuring plain gadrooned and knopped balusters, with a handrail that sweeps in a curve at the bottom. The balustrade continues around the open well and the first-floor landing. Some windows still have their shutters. The kitchen includes a stone fireplace with a Tudor arch and chamfered edges, while the first-floor front right has a stone fireplace with a basket arch and a 19th-century hobgrate. The property also has attached random rubble garden walls topped with red brick coping, and entrance piers with ball finials, but no gates.
