Built in 1908, this striking Tudor Revival rectory displays an interesting architectural design due to its irregular form. A variety of materials were employed in its design such as limestone, red brick and render, which creates an aesthetically pleasing structure, enhanced by the varied treatment to the windows. Together with the neighbouring former Church of Ireland church and parochial hall, it forms an attractive group of related structures in a rural setting.
