Description

No. 7 Glaston Road is a house that originated in the 15th to 16th century and features cruck construction. It was remodeled in the early 17th century on a cross-passage plan and underwent refenestration in the 19th to 20th centuries. The exterior is made of coursed ironstone rubble, with the rear wall being roughcast and colorwashed. It has a thatched roof and brick chimneys located at the right gable and to the right of center.

The house is two stories tall and has three bays. The left bays contain 20th-century barred wooden casements, with the lower windows featuring wooden lintels and the upper windows slightly set into the roof with thatch eyebrows. The right bay has one two-light casement of a similar style below the eaves, along with two additional casements on the ground floor that have stone lintels. The left of these two windows is set into a former doorway of the cross-passage. The current entry is through a flush-panelled door that has a flat wooden hood supported by brackets, located between the left bays. There is a small 20th-century lean-to at the rear.

Inside, there is one complete cruck truss between the left bays and most of one blade of another truss in the left gable end. A stack was inserted in the 17th century in line with a winder stair. The cross-passage to the right of the stack has been absorbed into the right bay due to the removal of a partition wall. The center bay, right bay, and passage feature deeply chamfered spine beams with moulded stops, while the right bay includes a moulded bracket at one end.
