Description

Rectory Farmhouse is a house dating to the 17th century, with extensions from the 17th and 18th centuries. It was altered in 1877, marked by a datestone, and again in the 20th century. The house is constructed of squared coursed ironstone with a slate roof and stone detailing. It is two storeys and an attic, originally with three bays. A two-storey extension was added to the central bay, featuring a straight parapet. This extension includes a doorway with a stone surround and ridged plank door on its right side, a French window to the left, and a 19th-century window with a stone hood and a 20th-century casement to the right. The first-floor windows are 19th-century with 20th-century casements. A central half-dormer with a coped gable on kneelers and 19th-century casements sits above, with two gabled 19th-century dormers to the right. The left side of the house features a 17th-century four-light stone mullioned window on the ground floor, a similar three-light window above, and a 17th-century three-light wood mullioned casement with a wood lintel in the attic. The rear windows are 17th-century, with two- and three-light stone mullioned openings. A further extension to the right is from the 17th or 18th century, using similar materials, and comprising one bay, two storeys and an attic. This extension has a 19th-century central doorway flanked by 19th-century windows with stone hoods and 20th-century casements, and a 19th-century window on the first floor. A coped gable end with kneelers is present. The interior has been remodelled in the 20th century, but retains 17th-century stop-chamfered ceiling beams with run-out stops.
