The Rectory

The Rectory is a late Regency, two-storey building constructed of rough-dressed, coursed slate-stone rubble beneath a hipped slate roof. It features two central chimneys, with the rear chimney having a modern brick stack. Originally designed in an L-shape, the rear angle has been filled with an extruded addition. The facade is symmetrical with three bays and includes two steps leading up to a central entrance. The original six-panel door is deeply recessed, with the lower panels being blind and the upper four fielded, accompanied by a plain three-pane rectangular overlight. The ground floor has original twelve-pane unhorned sash windows, while the first floor features nine-pane unhorned sashes, both with segmentally-arched heads and projecting slate sills; some later plaster architraves remain. A six-pane cellar light is located in the right bay, though the glazing has been renewed.

On the garden side, which is to the left (south), the wall is roughcast and includes a late 19th-century tripartite sash window consisting of four, twelve, and four-pane sections, along with modern French windows to the right. The first floor has nine-pane sashes, consistent with the rest of the building. The north (service) side features a late 19th-century entrance with a four-panel door, and the original cambered entrance to the right has been reduced and fitted with a modern window. Beyond this entrance is the additional section, which has two cambered sash windows of nine panes each on both floors, complete with brick voussoirs, and a similar window on the first-floor rear.

Inside, the entrance hall has a slate-flagged floor. A narrow pine well stair with plain stick balusters and a swept rail leads to a galleried landing on the first floor, featuring scrolled tread-ends and panelled sides. The turned newel post is a replacement from around 1890. The principal windows have panelled shutters, and there are six-panel pine doors with simple narrow architraves. The former drawing room has a plain slate fireplace, while the dining room features a white marble fireplace, both of which appear to be original.
