Description
The Old Rectory is a private house that was originally built around 1700 and features later additions from the late 19th century. It is constructed from chequered flint and limestone, topped with a tiled roof and ashlar stacks that have moulded cappings. The building was originally designed in a T-plan, with a late 19th-century wing added to the rear right.
This two-storey structure has seven windows and features casements. To the left of the center, there is a late 19th-century classical-style ashlar porch with a double panelled door, while to the right, there are four cross windows, and two cross windows to the left. The cellar to the left of the entrance includes two recessed chamfered mullioned casements. A moulded string course runs along the first floor, which has seven cross windows arranged in groups of three and four, along with coped verges and a late 19th-century gabled dormer on the roof.
The right side of the building has a cross window on the ground floor, a narrow chamfered casement on the first floor, and a 2-light mullioned casement in the attic. On the left side, there is an external stack with offsets and a cross window to the right. The attached late 19th-century wing on the left features four cross windows on both the ground and first floors, as well as two gabled dormers on the roof. The rear of the main range has mullioned windows and a central projecting stair wing.
The interior is reported to have stairs with barleysugar balusters. The building ceased to function as a rectory in 1970.
