Description
The Old Rectory is a two-storey parsonage built in the late 18th century or early 19th century, constructed from local dressed limestone with a slate roof that is half-hipped at both ends. The building features two mid-chimneys, with the one on the right positioned slightly off-ridge. The ridge and hips are covered in red tile. The upper storey at the front has original nine-pane sash windows, while the lower front windows have been replaced with enlarged late 19th-century canted bay windows featuring small-paned sashes, which replaced earlier smaller bays. There is a small external porch at the front, and the house is set on a terrace that is five steps above the front lawn.
At the rear, the windows have been altered to casement type within the original openings, except for the lower left window, which is in an altered opening. There is also one rooflight window at the rear.
A high limestone wall screens the house from the adjacent road, topped with large water-eroded blocks. Inside, there is a contemporary staircase with a scrolled end to the handrail over a curtail step, and the balustrade features iron balusters at intervals.
