Glebe House And Wall Attached

Glebe House is a house dating from the 16th century, with significant alterations in the early 18th century and the late 19th century. It is timber framed and rendered with applied framing, and extended with red and blue chequered brick in English bond. The building has plain tiled roofs. The original timber-framed section, now a smaller adjunct to the main building, is two storeys high with a half-hipped roof. It features one wooden casement window on each floor and a boarded door to the left.

The main range of the house, dating from the early 18th century, is three storeys and a basement high, resting on a plinth. It features blue brick strips and quoins and a hipped roof with stacks on both the left and right sides. There are five glazing bar sashes on the second floor, five segmentally headed sashes on the first floor, two sashes on the ground floor, and four glazing bar sashes on the ground floor, with a single-storey contemporary outshot to the right end. Sunk panels are located between the three storeys, and the openings have gauged heads with flying cornices. A basement opening is on the right side. A half-glazed door, with side lights and a semi-circular fanlight, is situated in a glazed 19th-century corridor/porch to the left. Later brickwork is visible on the left return, which is not bonded to the front elevation. A large, hipped wing from the 19th century extends to the rear of the property.

A wall, approximately six feet high and made of red brick on a ragstone plinth with coping, is attached to the left (south) side of the property. It incorporates a boarded gateway and extends for about 30 yards, returning to the northwest. The wall formerly belonged to the Rector's house (according to Hasted, Volume VII) or the vicarage (according to Igglesden, page 13).
