Foston Rectory is a historic building in Foston, North Yorkshire, a village in England.
Sydney Smith was appointed as rector of All Saints' Church, Foston in 1806. He wished to build a new rectory, but found architects' quotes to be too expensive. Instead, he designed the building himself and managed the construction work, which was begun in 1813 and completed in 1814. Downstairs were a drawing room, dining room, study and conservatory, with bedrooms upstairs. Smith remained in residence until 1829, and the building was thereafter largely unaltered.[1] The house was grade II* listed in 1954.
The rectory is in brick with a hipped pantile roof. There are two storeys, a main range with three bays, the end bay canted, and a lower service range of four bays. On the main range is a wrought iron porch, and the windows in both parts are sashes.[2]
