It is an important Victorian house designed by John Prichard and John Pollard Seddon, built in 1858–9 and used as a rectory until 1975.[1][2] It is built from coursed squared lies with Bath stone dressings in two storeys and a French medieval-style attic. The steep roofs are made from Welsh slate. A lean-to veranda across the ground floor is supported by stone columns with capitals.[1] The southern bay of the east elevation has a tall truncated pyramidal roof and on the eastern end is a gabled porch.[1]
