About The Rectory
The National Inventory rates The Rectory Regional, one of 16 in Kinnitty. The Rectory dates from 1805–1815. 13 other places on the record stand within 400 m.
Enlarged and altered, this substantial former rectory is enhanced by its subtle breakfront and the full-height bow to the rear. The retention of much original fabric, and the sympathetic replacement of lost fabric, further enhances the façade.

Questions about The Rectory
Is The Rectory on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 14821004).
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 1805–1815.
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.
