Former Rectory originally built in 1657 for the Rev Philip Henry by Judge Puleston of Emral Hall. Rev Henry was Rector of St Deiniol's Church and father of the Non-Conformist scholar Matthew Henry. Enlarged in the Tudor-Gothic style in 1833 but said to incorporate earlier elements. A private residence since 1990.
Large two-storey, plus multi-gabled attic, Tudor-Gothic double-pile house with stuccoed elevations under a slate roof. String courses articulate separate floors. Symmetrically composed front elevation. Mixture of sash windows, square-headed Tudor-style windows with mullions and transom, and pointed Gothic openings; small-pane glazing. Square-headed openings have hood-moulds. Projecting two-storey porch to front elevation with 4-centred arch entrance. Paired yellow brick chimney stacks with moulded caps.
Inspection not possible at time of resurvey.
Listed as a good example of an earlier C19 Rectory, also said to incorporate C17 elements.
