Description
The Old Rectory is a mid-18th century rectory, later converted into a house. It is constructed of squared coursed lias, with a slate roof. The building’s original plan likely comprised two units. The main façade features two storeys and a four-window arrangement of sash windows with glazing bars, set within wooden lintels. A six-panelled door is located to the right of centre, framed by a moulded wooden architrave and hood. Ashlar quoins and dressings are present. A single bay to the right is of coursed rubble with brick dressings, likely added in the late 18th century. An ashlar gable parapet is visible on the right-hand side, along with brick and stone stacks at the ridge and end of the building. A sundial is situated in the right gable. The interior includes an 18th century staircase, doors with reeded architraves, fielded panelled shutters, and the remains of an open fireplace in the room to the left. A rear loggia has sash windows, glazed doors with reeded architraves, and a coved ceiling.
