History
Built in 1870 as the Rectory for St. Peter's, Dixton and possibly designed by J P Seddon who was restoring the parish church at that time. It is now a private house.

This has a gabled bay to the left and the entrance in the centre. Windows with Tudor arched lights and a 4-centred doorway. Gable with fretted bargeboards and tall triple-flued stack with diamond set shafts to right. The garden (north) elevation is two bays with a projecting gabled wing to right. On the left is a tall tripartite French casement with small paned windows, above this a 2-light mullion-and-transom window. The gabled wing has a canted stone bay covering the whole of the ground floor. This has French doors and side windows with marginal glazing and a slated roof. The first floor has a 2-light window as before. Slit vent in the gable, fretted bargeboards. Roof hipped to left, three more 2 and 3-flued stacks behind. Rear elevation not seen.
