Description

Glebe House is an early 18th-century rectory, later used as a house, with alterations and additions from the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The building is constructed of painted brick with a 20th-century concrete tile roof. It is two storeys high with a gable-lit attic. The north front has plat bands above the ground and first-floor windows. A brick end stack is present on the left, rebuilt in the 20th century. The facade is three bays wide, featuring boxed glazing bar sashes with painted stone cills and gauged brick heads with raised keystones. The first-floor right-hand window has been rendered blind. A central half-glazed door, with two lower panels and nine small panes in a moulded mitred wooden frame, is set within a late 18th or early 19th century brick porch, which has a hipped slate roof and a depressed archway to the left. The right-hand gable end was refenestrated in the early 19th century, featuring two windows: glazing bar sashes to the ground floor and four-pane sashes to the first floor. A late 18th century slate-roofed lean-to is attached to the left, with a glazing bar sash to the front. The rear elevation contains 18th-century segmental-headed boxed glazing bar sashes.

The interior includes an early 18th-century three-flight rectangular-well oak staircase, featuring a closed string, turned balusters, a moulded handrail, and square newel posts with moulded capitals. A dog-leg flight leads to the attic with stick balusters. Chamfered ceiling beams have ogee stops. An old kitchen fireplace is located in the left-hand rear room. A cellar is present, featuring dressed sandstone blocks and a chamfered beam.
