Description
The Old Rectory is a former rectory, now a house, dating from the early 18th century with extensions added in the 19th century. It is constructed of coursed, squared, and dressed limestone, with a stone slate roof and ashlar stacks. The building consists of an original rectangular range to which extensions have been added at the rear. The attic is lit by two gabled 2-light dormers and two half dormers with raking leaded roofs, both dating to the 20th century.
The south front retains the original 3-bay entrance. The first floor has two early 18th-century sash windows, one with 24 panes, one with 18 panes, and a further 24-pane sash window at the lower left. All windows are set within dressed stone architraves with keystones and have wide glazing bars. A two-light steel casement with leaded panes in a roll-moulded stone surround is located at the lower right. The right-hand return has 2 and 3-light casements with similar surrounds. A two-storey canted bay, built in ashlar, is set into the left-hand return, lit by 18-pane sashes with wide glazing bars within dressed stone surrounds with keystones. A central door features a rusticated surround in the manner of Gibbs, and incorporates part-glazed panes at the top and a single fielded panel at the bottom. Axial, gable-end, and lateral stacks are present, each featuring moulded cappings and skirtings. The interior was not inspected.
