Description
The Old Rectory is a former rectory built in 1841 by T. Rutherford for Reverend W. Money. It is constructed from squared rubble stone and features low-pitched slate roofs. The building has two storeys and an attic.
The façade includes stone mullion and transom windows with small-paned lights. To the left is a cross wing, followed by a two-window range of two-light windows that has a dripcourse and a roof hipped at an angle. Slightly set back is a matching one-window range with a ridge stack and a roof hipped at an angle, which may have been added later. The cross wing features a ground floor canted bay with 1:3:1-light stone windows, a 3-light window above with a hoodmould, and an attic 2-light mullion window also with a hoodmould.
On the west side, there is a matching two-window range of 2-light mullion-and-transom windows with hoodmoulds, followed by a single-storey range to the north that includes two 2-light mullion windows and a Tudor-arched doorway, both with hoodmoulds. The east front has a hipped roof with two ridge stacks, and the dripcourse is interrupted by a 3-light stair window and two 2-light windows on the right side.
Plans for the addition of the cross wing, signed by T. Rutherford of Calne, are held at the Wiltshire Record Office, indicating that this section was added to a building that was still under construction at the time.
