Description
The Old Rectory is a house that dates back to the 19th century and features two storeys plus an attic. The front has three windows and is finished with roughcast render, topped by a slate roof and rectangular chimneys at either end. The central entrance consists of a four-panelled door with modern glazing above it. On each side of the door are twelve-pane hornless sash windows, and the first floor has three twelve-pane sash windows. Above the centre, there is a gabled attic with a decorative bargeboard and a nine-pane sash window with an ogee lintel. The rear of the house, which is painted stone, includes a two-storey gabled block that is set at right angles to the main structure.
The front of the house is bordered by a low wall topped with iron railings that feature spear finials, along with posts that have urn finials. There is a gate that matches this style.
Inside, the hall features a wooden staircase at the rear and 19th-century panelled doors leading to the rooms on either side. The room on the left has longitudinal beams, a fireplace with a wooden panelled overmantel, and panelled cupboards on each side. Some 19th-century panelled doors are also present on the first floor.
