Detached three-bay two-storey former rectory, built c. 1860, having pitched roof extension to rear (west). Now in use as a presbytery. Hipped slate roof having overhanging eaves, cast-iron rainwater goods and rendered chimneystacks. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings having replacement uPVC windows and cut limestone sills. Square-headed opening having timber doorcase comprising pilasters and consoles flanking timber panelled door and overlight, approached by cut limestone steps. Multiple-bay two-storey outbuilding with pitched corrugated-iron roof and roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings having timber windows and square-headed opening having timber battened door. Entrance to well visible in yard, covered.
The setting of this former rectory together with the retention of the outbuildings enhance the site. The fine doorcase is of particular interest, with its elegant pilasters and consoles, subtly enlivening the regular form of this fine house.
