Description
Glebe Farmhouse and front garden wall is a house and garden wall dating from the mid-18th century. The building is constructed of squared limestone, with pebble-dashed finish on the front and roughcast on the left side. It features a renewed pantiled roof and rebuilt brick chimney stacks. The garden wall is also made of squared limestone.
The farmhouse is a tall, two-storey structure with three bays. The central entrance has a replaced door and a fanlight with intersecting tracery, set within an open-pedimented wooden doorcase that includes engaged columns with fluted capitals. On either side of the door are Venetian windows with projecting sills, which have 4+12+4-pane sashes and intersecting-tracery central heads. Above, there are three 12-pane sashes with projecting sills and flat-arched brick lintels. The roof is steeply pitched with slightly swept eaves, and features renewed gable copings and shaped kneelers, along with end stacks.
The rear half of the house projects slightly beyond the front half on the right side. On the left side, there is an off-centre four-panel door with fielded panels, flanked by 12-pane sashes with projecting sills, and a smaller 12-pane sash in the attic. The low, flat-coped, semicircular-plan front garden wall, which adjoins the ends of the house, has a quadrant ramp on the right.
