Description
The Old Rectory is a former rectory now used as a house, built in 1694 by Rev. John Coxe. It features incised render, a stone slate roof, and ashlar stacks, with a 'U'-shaped plan. The building has two storeys, an attic, and a cellar. The entrance front, which was originally symmetrical with seven windows, is on the east side and is lit by 12-pane sash windows with ovolo-moulded surrounds. The central double door, accessed by three stone steps, has fielded panels and is framed by moulded architraves and keystones that extend to meet a continuous dripmould. Above the first-floor windows is a similar dripmould, and there are three segmental-headed roof dormers with 6-pane sashes. A 19th-century gabled wrought iron porch is also present.
At the rear, there are two and three-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements and an ovolo-moulded cross window. A single-storey 20th-century porch is located at the rear right. On the right-hand return, there is a flat-roofed single-storey bow window, added around 1828, which is lit by three 12-pane sashes with dressed stone architraves and keystones, and features a band and moulded cornice above the windows. A tripartite sash window is located above the bow window, and painted arms of University College Oxford can be seen to the right. The remaining fenestration consists of 12-pane sashes with ovolo-moulded surrounds. The hipped roof has projecting and axial stacks with moulded capping.
Inside, there is an original 17th-century dogleg staircase with turned balusters and a ramped handrail. Bolection moulded architraves that were formerly in the hall have been removed.
