The Glebe

The Glebe is a former rectory built in 1772, with later additions. It is constructed of brick and features black pantile roofs. The original T-shaped plan includes a principal block flanked by pavilions to the south, with an additional section added to the east around 1800. The building is two storeys high, with the south facade displaying five bays of sash windows with glazing bars set beneath skewback arches. The ground floor window sills are at ground level, and the centre bay is slightly advanced, topped with a pediment. The building has renewed moulded timber cornices.

Each side of the principal block has a single-storey pavilion, with the west pavilion featuring a sash window with glazing bars, while the east pavilion has a double glazed plastic imitation window. Both pavilions have steeply pitched hipped roofs and end stacks on the main block. The west facade contains four bays of sash windows with glazing bars framed by painted moulded architraves. The ground floor windows are enhanced with cornices and pulvinated friezes, and the eaves are adorned with a shaped modillion cornice.

The angle between the main block and the west facade is filled by a 20th-century porch extension that incorporates a late 18th-century two-leaf panelled door and doorcase, complete with a semicircular fanlight featuring radiating glazing bars. The porch has a flat roof supported by two 20th-century Ionic columns. The eastern section of the building has five bays of sash windows with glazing bars beneath skewback arches, a central half-glazed door, and a 20th-century conservatory at the northern end, also featuring a shaped modillion eaves cornice.

Inside, there is a fine swept staircase with shaped tread ends, stick balusters, and a mahogany handrail. The lower treads have been fitted with 20th-century balusters and a handrail on one side, designed to imitate the original due to the addition of the porch.
