Description

The Old Rectory is a house dated 1834, built of red brick in Flemish bond with stone dressings and a concrete tile roof. It has two storeys and two bays, featuring a plinth. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door set within a Doric porch, which has two pilasters and two columns, along with a frieze, cornice, and blocking course. All windows are sash style with glazing bars and flat arches; the ground floor windows have sills, while those on the first floor have a continuous sill band. The eaves overhang, and the roof is hipped with ridge stacks. At the rear, there is a pointed-arched stair window with intersecting tracery, which has the date inscribed above the arch. The garden front is similar but consists of three bays. Inside, there is a large plain open-well staircase.
