Alan Carter Building Survey.
Detailed description of rectory and associated buildings working from 1955 back to 1606. Inventory of the property in ?1606 and 1626, and two wills dated to 1529 and 1606. It is not completely certain that these documents relate to this building, but is it the most plausible option. If this is correct then the building dates to much earlier than previously believed.
