OXTED WEST HILL TQ 35 SE 6/303 The Old Rectory II

Detached house, former rectory, 1903, designed by C M Oldrid Scott. Brownish brick with red sound faced brick dressings, clay-tiled roof. Tile hanging to upper floor of service wing, stone caps to chimneys. The principal part of the house is set out as a rectangular block under a hipped roof. The entrance front faces east: all but symmetrical elevation, handsome bracketed canopy to porch with lead roof, sashes to principal ground floor windows, the rest casements, shaped gable to centre with Diocletian window, two dormers in the roof. The garden front is to the W: made less obviously symmetrical by off-centre chimney-stack; shallow single-storey bays to either side, sashes to all principal rooms; the central bay carried up through the eaves and capped with a curved lead roof expressed as a broken pediment. On the S side, single storey wing, former parish room, and greenhouse, both part of the original design, handsome expressed chimney stack. On the n side, the service wing under a separate lower roof, brick to the ground floor, tile-hanging above. Alterations and additions to the exterior are: extension of the parish room to the e, and, in the service wing, garden door and window at W end, door blocked in centre of N side, lean-to to east side, entire ground floor of S side. Interior: the plan survives in part on the ground floor, and in large part on the upper floor. No features of particular interest.
