Description

Rectory in formal Georgian style. Built of local stone with gritstone quoins. Slate roof with projecting eaves and verges and rendered rectangular stacks. A 2-storey building with 3-bay entrance elevation to NW, comprising advanced gabled wings to either side of a narrow 2-window central bay with twin-arched loggia with lean-to roof clasped between the gables to the ground floor; this has doorway recessed in the right-hand arch, balanced by a window in the left. Windows are small-paned sashes of 12-panes to the ground floor at the front, 9-panes above, with slightly recessed rubblestone heads, flat arches with cambered extrados. The rear (SE) elevation is a 7-window range including a central 3 window full-height canted bay; very tall ground floor windows of 15-panes.

The main entrance has outer and inner half glazed double doors with margin panes; the inner under a rectangular fanlight with splayed glazing bars. The entrance leads into a central square hallway with a landing gallery at first floor level; the hallway is illuminated by a domed circular lantern with an enriched drum decorated with a moulded fleur de lys frieze. The stairway has a wreathed handrail over stick balusters and an open string with arched brackets. Most of the rooms retain simple moulded cove cornices and panelled window reveals (some with shutters); 6 panelled doors throughout.
