The Old Rectory

The Old Rectory is a two-storey house built of rubble stone, with a slate roof and stone stacks, dating to an unknown period. The house consists of an entrance range to the west, which is the earlier part of the building, with two wings extending behind. The southern wing has a formal garden front, and the northern wing served as a service area and has a two-span roof running parallel to the entrance range.

The three-window entrance range features a central stone stack and a gabled bay to the right with an external stack. Above the apex of the gabled bay, the roofline rises to incorporate an attic storey. The walls have a noticeable batter at their base. To the left of the gabled bay is a three-bay canopy constructed with broad cast iron columns, wide segmental arches with cusped panelling in the spandrels, and a hipped roof. The central doorway is boarded and ribbed with three glazed panes; to the right is a narrow sash window, and to the left a three-light mullioned and transomed window. In the upper storey are a horned sash to the left, a half-dormer with a two-light casement in the centre, and a narrow sash to the left of the gable stack.

The garden front on the south side has a cross-window in the gable end of the entrance range, to the right of which is a four-window southern wing. The upper storey has horned sashes set within gablets, which are narrower to the right of centre, where they illuminate the staircase. The lower storey also has similar sashes, except to the left of centre and right, where larger cross-windows incorporate casements. The gable end of the southern wing has a stepped external stack with a horned sash to the right in the upper storey, and a similar sash to the upper storey of the service wing. A 20th-century conservatory has been added to the east side of the building.

The two-window north front of the service wing has attic windows with two-light casements and larger two-light casements set beneath segmental heads in the upper storey. In the upper storey to the right is a taller, narrow window illuminating the staircase. The lower storey windows on this side are later insertions. To the left of centre is a half-lit boarded door, and to the right a similar half-lit door with panels and a chamfered surround. The gable end of the entrance range has additional first-floor openings with Breconshire windows, and incorporates a lean-to former bakehouse.

The building was not inspected at the time of the survey in September 1997.
