5/120 The Old Rectory and attached stable and outhouse ranges

- II

Rectory, now house and stables. 1815 by Thomas Cundy. Limestone ashlar, squared rubble and some tile hanging; Welsh-slate roofs with ashlar stacks. L-plan with service and subsidiary ranges. 2 storeys. Irregular front has, to right, the main range with the wing projecting to extreme right and a 2-storey crenellated porch in the angle. Gables have stepped parapets with triangular copings and projecting kneelers, and have stacks with paired diagonal ashlar shafts. 12-pane sash windows and some blind windows have plain architraves and label moulds. 4-centre arched porch entrance, with similar window above, leads to a 4-panel door with fanlight. To left, probably added later, is a lower double-gabled range, the front tile-hung above a wooden arcade, and to extreme left is a projecting wing of the rubble service range to rear. 3-window elevation, to right side of main range, has a gabled projecting right bay with a wide 4-centred archway at ground floor. Garden front, to rear, also of 3 windows, breaks back in the right bay which contains a crenellated bay window at ground floor; 4-window service range extends to right of it and bears the date 1815 on its gable wall. Interior has original joinery and stairs. Subsidiary ranges attached to the left end of the house and forming a 3-sided court include: at the front, an irregular single-storey range with a wing returning forwards at the extreme left; to rear, a stable range with a central pyramid-roofed 2-storey section, with a 2-window front of segmental-arched 2-light casements, breaking forward from flanking lower sections with dormers and loft doors. Noted as based on a design obtained by Lord Jersey in 1812 from Henry Hakewill. (V.C.H.: Oxfordshire, Vol.VI, p.244; Buildings of England: Oxfordshire, p.703).
