Description

The 1854 building replaced the earlier structure on the adjacent site, which had a walled garden in 1607. This can no longer be seen. The main elements of the 19th century rebuilding seem to have survived, but there has been a pond filled in and additional buildings, also a new pond added. No obvious features of interest (B6).
A mid‐C19 rectory, gardens, kitchen garden and park paddocks with much C19 woody planting, 
incorporating the site of an earlier rectory. The single phase of structures (by John Tarring) and 
layout survives largely intact, with long views north across the Great Ouse valley to the skyline of 
Stowe, and later garden features added within the 1850s framework without significant  alteration. See report for detail (B7).
