HUNTSHAW SS52SW 8/115 Huntshaw House II Rectory, now house. C17 origins; rebuilt 1836 by Thomas Illman of Bideford.

C20 porch to left, to C20 doorway. Flat rendered arches over 12-pane sashes and tall 15-pane sash lighting stairs. Similar sashes to right side wall. C20 door to rear. Interior: early C19 panelled shutters and doors; early C19 semi-circular staircase with stick balusters, fret-cut brackets to open string and wreathed handrail; early C19 marble fireplace to right. The plan and other features of the present rectory suggest that it represents a drastic remodelling of an older house. Illman recorded that his rectory replaced one of stone and cob.
