Description

The outbuilding located to the south of The Rectory and Rectory Lodge is a former oven house that has been converted into a garage and additional outbuildings. It dates back to the 17th century and is constructed from squared and coursed rubble limestone, featuring an ashlar chimney and a stone slate roof. The structure consists of two single-storey blocks that run north to south, connected by a section at the southern end, forming a U-shape.

The west block has a parapet gable at its south end, which includes a round-ended projecting bread oven and a gable-mounted chimney with a moulded cap. The roofs of the building are mostly hipped. There is one original chamfered window opening on the west side, along with various other casement windows. The east side has been altered to include a 20th-century garage door.

Inside, the layout has been modified, but the bread oven remains intact with its iron door. This building is an unusual survival, as many large houses from the 16th century or earlier typically had similar structures.
