The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a rectory that has been converted into a private house. It dates back to the 16th century, with alterations made in the 17th and 18th centuries, and an early 19th-century addition to the west. The building is primarily timber-framed, although the north wing and central range have been largely remodeled, with the north wing constructed from rubblestone and brick dressings, while the remainder is in brick. The roof is covered with old tiles. The layout is in a half-H shape with crosswings, which were infilled in the early 19th century. The structure consists of two bays with two bay crosswings and is two storeys high, with attics in the crosswings.

On the east or garden elevation, the wings project, with the right-hand wing featuring a two-light casement on both the ground and first floors, and a three-light leaded attic casement. The central range has an off-centre stack, left-hand French doors, and two-light casements, along with a two-light dormer on the right. The upper floor of the south wing is timber-framed with plaster infill and tension braces, and it has a jetty that is underbuilt. The ground floor has French doors, while the first floor has a two-light casement and a three-light leaded gable casement. The south elevation showcases a 16th-century stone stack with a brick upper part.

The west or entrance elevation is made of brick, while the north wing is rubblestone with brick dressings. The windows include casements in the gable and upper floor of the north wing, featuring three-light leaded casements. The 19th-century entrance block infill has stepped eaves, and there is a central door within a modern gabled porch.

Inside, the south wing contains stone fireplaces from the 16th century, which feature four-centred arches and carved spandrels. Notably, Gilbert Sheldon, who served as Archbishop of Canterbury from 1663 to 1667, was the Rector from 1636 to 1660.
