Description
The Old Rectory is a house built in 1805 by the Reverend John Sargent, who served as Rector from 1805 to 1833. This L-shaped building is faced with roughcast and features a slate roof, with stone slates on the north side. The windows have intact glazing bars, and there is a segmental bay that rises two storeys on the north side. The house has two storeys and four windows. Notably, the Reverend Henry Edward Manning, who later became Archdeacon and then Cardinal, lived here from 1831 to 1833 while he was a curate in Graffham, alongside Reverend John Sargent, whose daughter Caroline he married.
