Description

Glenville House is a semi-detached house dating from the 18th century. It is constructed from cut and squared lias stone with ham stone dressings, topped by a plain clay tiled roof that sits over stone slate base courses between stepped coped gables. The house features rendered stone slab chimney stacks.

The building has two storeys and three bays. On the upper level, there are three-light hollow chamfered mullioned windows, which are plain glazed and include an iron-framed central opening light with external stays. The lower level has four-light plain headed mullioned windows framed by simple architraves. In the second bay from the left, there is a part-glazed door set within an architrave, topped by a flat stone hood supported by console brackets.

Attached to the north gable is a single-storey outbuilding, which has an undulating double Roman clay tiled roof and a boarded north gable, featuring one three-light casement window. The interior has not been seen, but it is noted to have a two-room cross passage plan with 19th-century lean-to service rooms at the rear.
