Description
The Old Rectory is a former rectory constructed from rubble stone, which was likely originally roughcast or rendered. It features a low-pitched slate roof and three short stacks made of roughcast. The building is three storeys high and has a five-window range. There is a structural joint between the third and fourth bays, indicating that the upper storey of the older left section was added later. The older part has a three-window range of hornless 12-pane sash windows, with a 9-pane sash on the ground floor to the right and a central 20th-century glazed door. Slab lintels are used above the windows.
The added section on the right has a two-window range, which includes a 9-pane sash and a 12-pane sash, along with a six-panel door with an overlight aligned to the left. To the right, there are tripartite sashes, with a configuration of 3-6-3 panes on the upper floor and 4-8-4 panes on the first and ground floors. This section also features slab lintels, and the stonework is made of larger squared blocks.
According to the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales, the building has stairs of an earlier 18th-century style, characterized by square newels and a moulded rail, with later balusters. The stairwell is panelled and it is noted that the building may have originally had partitions made of straw-rope under plaster.
