Description

Glebe House is a house with a 14th-century rear wing and later additions and alterations. The structure features timber framing and plastering, while the front range, built in the late 18th or early 19th century, is made of red brick. The roofs are covered with red plain tiles and the house has two storeys. It has a four-window range of small paned vertical sliding sashes with moulded surrounds. The central entrance features a flat-roofed enclosed brick porch with stone coping and ball finials on either side, along with a central step decoration. The round-headed doorway leads to a 20th-century door that is part glazed and part panelled. Inside, the house showcases heavy studding and curved braces from the 14th century, along with jowled storey posts and a segmental-headed door. A rare feature is the 14th-century integral red brick chimney stack. The front range displays good late 18th-century details, including doors, mouldings, and a staircase, which likely originated from another location. The house may have connections to Over Hall manor, which was held by the De Lyston and Lyons families in the 14th century.
