Description
The Old Rectory is a rectory that has been converted into a house. It was built in the early 18th century and has undergone later additions and alterations, including the addition of a third storey. The building is constructed from hammer-dressed limestone with ashlar dressings and features roofs made of Welsh slate and pantiles.
The layout includes a central hallway entry with a service cross wing at the rear. The structure has three storeys and five bays, with the central bay featuring a pediment that projects forward. It has a plinth and quoins, and there are four steps leading up to a half-glazed door that is topped by a fanlight and set within a rusticated architrave that has a stepped keystone. The ground and first floors have sash windows with glazing bars, separated by a band, while the second floor features 6-pane sashes. Throughout the building, there are rusticated architraves with stepped keystones. The eaves have a band, and the gables are finished with coping, shaped kneelers, and corniced end stacks.
Inside, there is an open string dogleg staircase that has two square knop column-on-vase balusters per tread and a ramped handrail. Most windows are fitted with shutters.
