Description
Glebe House is a house built in 1864, as indicated by a plaque on the front wall. It was constructed for Reverend Richard Parrott, who served as vicar from 1864 to 1893 and also restored the church in 1866. The house features roughcast brickwork with exposed bands of red brick and a plinth at the first floor and eaves. It has a Romanesque-style porch made of red brick, which includes a pediment, a dentilled impost band, and a gauged round arch. The hipped slate roof has overhanging eaves and a plastered soffit. The building is two stories tall with three windows that have two-light casements and moulded architraves. A crosswing on the south side projects both to the front and to the rear. The entrance includes a six-panel moulded door with glazed top panels. At the rear, there are seven sash windows and a lean-to verandah supported by slender cast iron columns. Glebe House is part of a picturesque group alongside Home Lodge and Walton Lodge, which adds to its significance.
