 A second Durrington Fire occurred in 1921 when the thatch to the Old Rectory on Church Street caught fire, the wind took the embers over the Church tower landing on the thatched tied cottages to the south, razing most and leaving the remainder ruined.The Old Rectory was rebuilt under a tiled roof, and is now one of the village's more substantial houses.The cottages were removed and are now replaced by small number of residential mobile homes.
