Description

Late Regency 2-storey rectory of rough-dressed, coursed slate-stone rubble under a hipped slate roof; 2 central chimneys, that to the rear with modern brick stack. Originally of L-plan, the rear angle was subsequently filled with an extruded addition. Symmetrical 3-bay facade with 2 steps up to a central entrance. Deeply-recessed original 6-panel door, its lower panels blind and the upper 4 fielded; plain 3-pane rectangular overlight. Original 12- and 9-pane unhorned sashes to the ground and first floors respectively, with segmentally-arched heads and projecting slate sills; later plaster architraves survive in part. Six-pane cellar light to R bay, the glazing renewed. The garden side, to the L (S) is roughcast. This has a late C19 tripartite sash window (of 4-, 12- and 4-pane sections) and modern French windows to the R; 9-pane sashes, as before, to the first floor. The N (service) side has a late C19 entrance with 4-panel door, with the original cambered entrance to the R (now reduced and with a modern window). Beyond the former is the additional section. This has 2 cambered sash windows of 9-panes each to both floors, with brick voussoirs; further, similar window to the first-floor rear.

Slate-flagged floor to entrance hall. Narrow pine well stair with plain stick balusters and swept rail, returned on the first floor to create a galleried landing; scrolled tread-ends and panelled sides. Turned newel post, a replacement of c1890. Panelled shutters to principal windows and 6-panel pine doors with simple narrow architraves. Plain slate fireplace to the former drawing room, and white marble fireplace to the dining room, both apparently primary.
