Description
Glebe House is a vicarage, now a house, built in 1878-1879 for the Church Commissioners, designed by George Gilbert Scott Jnr. It features red brick with blue brick panels and a tiled roof. The building is two stories with attics and has a layout of six by two bays, consisting of a central two-bay section with nearly flush two-bay wings. Originally, there was a rear service wing on the left, which has been converted into a garage, and a parish room that has since been demolished. The house is designed in an early Queen Anne revival style.
There is a door in the side elevation set in a recessed porch, featuring a five-panel door with a round fanlight above it. The windows are eight-pane sashes with moulded brick pediments over gauged lintels. The gables of the wings are slightly Flemish shaped, and there are residual capitals and dentilled eaves on the central bays. The central bays include a canted bay window on the ground floor, which was added to the original design, and the shaped parapet has been rebuilt straight. The roof is hipped, with a central hipped dormer and symmetrical chimneys that have raised blue brick cross decorations.
The original contract cost for the building was £2,330, which increased to £2,758.15.2d due to additions made at the final account. Inside, there is an internal stair hall that is illuminated by a large rear hipped dormer, and the ceilings feature cornices.
