Description

The Glebe House, originally known as The Vicarage, is an 18th-century vicarage that has been converted into a house. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a slate roof with coped verges and end brick stacks. The building has a symmetrical Tudor style frontage, consisting of a single storey and an attic with three bays.

On the first floor, there are two-light stone-mullioned windows set in gabled half-dormers, while the ground floor has similar three-light windows with labels above them. The central door opening has a moulded surround with a four-centred arch head, a label, and an incised datestone that reads "1710." The door itself is a 20th-century panelled design. The windows are fitted with iron casements and square-paned leaded lights.
