The rectory is made of stone and dates to the end of the 16th century with earlier work noted in the south east wing. The dormer windows date to the 17th century and a 16th century four light window lies north of the porch.
The Old Rectory is considerably grander than the new one a quarter of a mile down the road. Its most famous occupant was Alexander 'Sandy' Napier, who was simultaneously Rector of Great Linford and Astrologer to King James 1st.
Now it is being used by a local Architect.
The co-ords are from the High Street in Great Linford.
