The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a house that was formerly a rectory, built around 1850 and attributed to Sir George Gilbert Scott. The building is constructed of red brick featuring a blue diaper pattern, with toothed brick eaves and stone quoins, window dressings, and gable copings. It has a tiled roof adorned with bands of ornamental tiles and a cusped crest along the ridge. The structure has two storeys and an attic, with the south front consisting of three bays. The outer bays have 2-light barred casements with moulded stone mullions, and the ground floor features a transomed window. The centre of the first floor has a similar 3-light window with a single gabled dormer above. A central gabled porch showcases stone dressings, a moulded perpendicular arched doorway with carved spandrels, and a rectangular central panel above. The porch is accented by a stepped string course and moulded ogee finials over the kneelers of the coped gable, and it contains barred glazed double doors. A rear wing, also gabled, is designed in a similar style.
