Description
The Old Rectory is a house that was formerly a rectory, built in 1836 by M. Habershon, possibly incorporating some 18th century work. The structure is made of rubblestone with brick quoins and dressings on the west elevation, and features a witchert service range to the north. It has old tile roofs and is two storeys high.
The south front has three bays, with the left bay gabled and slightly projecting. The entrance is located in an arched porch on the east front, which also has three bays, with the southern bay being gabled and projecting. The porch is centrally located, followed by a simpler bay. The south range and porch are adorned with moulded parapet base strings and weathered copings.
On the south front, there is a canted bay window in the left bay, featuring a tripartite sash on the first floor and a blank shield in the gable. The other two bays have sash windows, which have chamfers on the window jambs and heads. The side elevations also have sash windows. A projecting stack is present on the east gable, with moulded base and head bands, and there is another stack between the left-hand bays on the south front. The witchert bays are rendered, and there is modern infill at the northeast angle.
