Full Description

THE RECTORY (89760587), of two storeys, with rendered walls and slate-covered roofs, is mainly of the early 19th century, but it incorporates a small 18th-century range in the western part. The S.E. front is symmetrical and of three bays, the centre bay defined by pilasters and a small pediment. At the centre is a french window; in the lower storey the side bays have sashed windows, in the upper storey all three bays have casement windows with glazing-bars arranged to form narrow marginal panes. The N.W. elevation incorporates banded rubble and brickwork of 18th-century date. Reset in an internal wall is a 16th-century stone window of two lights with four-centred heads; it is perhaps from the former church. <2.
