Description
The Rectory is a building constructed around 1830 by Reverend Charles Brandon Trye. It features ashlar stonework and a slate roof, with rendered stacks. The structure has a square main body, a lean-to conservatory on one side, and a service wing at the rear. It stands two storeys tall with a symmetrical facade that has three windows. The first floor displays tripartite sash windows, including a central 16-pane sash, all framed by moulded architraves. The central entrance consists of a 20th-century fielded panelled door, flanked by a two-light hall light and a wrought iron porch topped with a glazed lean-to roof. A band runs between the floors. The right-hand side of the building is partly obscured by the conservatory, featuring two 12-pane sash windows and two blind windows on the first floor. The left-hand side has twelve-pane sashes. The roof is hipped with lateral stacks. The interior has not been inspected.
