Description

The Glebe is a house dating from the 18th and 19th centuries, constructed of squared coursed ironstone with a slate roof. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring three bays. The central doorway is framed with moulded stone and has a straight entablature, leading to a 19th-century glazed door. This doorway is flanked by sash windows with side lights. A string course runs at the first-floor level, where there is a central sash window also framed in stone. Each side of this window has a sash window with side lights. The roof is hipped and includes flanking stacks, as well as two hipped dormers with sash windows. At the rear, there is a curved one-storey bay topped with a conical roof, dating from around 1800, along with additions from around 1840 on the right side. The interior has not been inspected but is reported to feature an oval dining room and some re-used 16th-century panelling from The Old Rectory.
