Description
Glebe House is a former rectory built in 1826, as indicated by the date on the window lintel above the entrance. It was designed by John Whiting of Ipswich for Reverend Edward Paske. The building is constructed of gault brick, which is now painted, and features a low-pitched hipped roof covered with slate and internal chimneys made of painted brick.
The house is two storeys tall and has a three-window main range, with a slightly set-back two-window service range to the left. The windows are small-pane sashes with moulded cast-iron lintels. A former sash window to the left of the entrance, along with others on different elevations, has been replaced with a 20th-century casement in the original opening.
The entrance boasts a well-preserved doorway with a three-panelled door; the lower panels are fielded while the upper panel is glazed with small panes. The reveals are also fielded and there is a Doric portico porch featuring a flat entablature that is enriched with triglyphs.
