Prior to 1860 the Rectory was a large house in the enclosure of the present Gardens House and previous to that again it was probably the house by Stryt-Iydan Barn, now a displayed excavation within the Welsh Natural History Museum. The property is built with stone walls, Bath stone dressings and steep roofs of Welsh slate with three tall rectangular chimney stacks. There are two storeys plus an attic designed in an elaborately detailed French medieval character. The full width veranda on the south facing garden elevation is part of the original design.
