Description
The Old Rectory is an early 18th-century rectory, altered in 1812 and now used as a house. It is constructed of coursed and squared ironstone with limestone dressings and has stone slate roofs. The building has a plinth, corner pilasters, a first-floor band, coped gables with kneelers, and three coped stone gable stacks and two ridge stacks. There are also two rendered side wall stacks with brick flues. It is two storeys plus garrets, with five bays and a double-range plan.
The front garden elevation features a projecting gabled central bay with a renewed, pedimented wooden doorcase, a geometrical fanlight, and a two-leaf door. Flanking the door are two 6/6 sash windows, and above them are five similar sashes, all with flat arches. A datestone inscribed ‘G M 1812’ is set into the central gable. The south side has a double gabled arrangement with a recessed centre containing a segmental hooded opening framing a half-glazed door with flanking and overlights. To the left of the door is a blocked window, and to the right, a glazing bar sash. Beyond is an outbuilding with a garage door. Above, on each floor, a central glazing bar sash is flanked to the left by a blocked window and to the right by a similar sash.
The rear elevation features a recessed centre flanked by a blank wing to the west and a wing containing 19th-century sash windows to the west. The east side has a single-storey hipped outbuilding with a six-panel door.
