The Rectory was built about 1820 and replaced an earlier building. It was restored in 1858. The Rev'd Thomas Steele was the Rector in the village from 1857-1902. He lived at the Rectory with his wife Agnes. They had a cook, Eliza Coe, and two domestic servants; Ann Bisley and Elizabeth Browning. There are early photographs taken at this time of the interior of Whepstead Rectory. These are in the Spanton-Jarman collection (reproduced thanks to the Bury Past and Present Society). The Whepstead clergy no longer live in Whepstead Rectory but it remains an important building in the village.
