Questions about The Rectory
Is The Rectory on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 12301006).
Can you visit The Rectory?
Many historic buildings are private homes; this one can be seen from the street.
When was The Rectory built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1815–1820.
Is The Rectory protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
