Description
The Old Rectory is a rectory that has been converted into a dwelling. It likely dates from the 17th century but underwent extensive alterations and enlargements in the late 19th century. The building is roughcast over rubble and features a gable front with a gully between the gables, coped verges, and slate roofs. There are brick stacks located at the center of the ridges and at the rear left. The plan consists of a parallel range with a gabled front. It is two storeys high with a layout of 1:2 bays. The windows are 2 and 3-light Tudor arch head hollow chamfered Ham stone mullioned windows, which are set under hoodmoulds and fitted with plate glass. To the right of the center, there is a 19th-century gabled timber porch that has overhanging eaves, side lights, and diagonally boarded double doors. The right return has two bays, while the left return has three bays. The interior was not seen during the inspection. A view from 1707 shows only the left range of the building.
