TL 45 NE TEVERSHAM CHURCH ROAD
(North East Side)

6/196 No. 30 (The
Rectory)

II

Rectory built in 1819 by James Webster for Rev. John Brocklebank
to replace an earlier house, fragments of which may have been
incorporated in the present building. Grey gault brick with
slate roofs and end stacks to each gable end. The guttering at
the front is masked by a moulded wood eaves cornice with paired
brackets. The house is built on a plan of two parallel, linked
ranges. Two storeys. The main front is to the garden and has
four recessed hung sashes in flat, gauged brick arches to each
floor. The first floor windows have later C19 louvred
shutters. The principal entry is in the West gable end of the
rear range almost beneath the valley. Reeded doorcase with boss
enrichments at the corners. Door with eight beaded panels and
above a rectangular fanlight with glazing bars. Above the
doorway is a similar recessed hung sash and on either side a
blind recess. Inside the house retains its original plan with
the incumbents study off the corridor. The staircase and
plaster cornice mouldings are original, as are the reeded
doorcases and a fireplace.
