Description

Glencat is a traditional farmhouse dated 1814, featuring two storeys and an attic with three bays. The exterior is harled with a rubble base course.

The southeast elevation is symmetrical, showcasing a glazed boarded timber door at the center of the ground floor, topped with a tooled lintel inscribed with "1814." There is a window in each flanking bay, and the first floor has regular fenestration with two skylights symmetrically placed in the attic.

The northeast elevation is gabled and near-symmetrical, with a blank wall featuring a metal vent at the center of the ground floor. There is a lean-to addition on the outer right side.

The northwest elevation is asymmetrical, with a window at the center of the ground floor and an off-centre window to the left above. A lean-to addition is attached to the left bay at ground floor, featuring a boarded timber door on the right return and a two-pane window above on the first floor. A gabled boarded timber addition projects from the right bay at ground floor, with a door on the left return and a corrugated roof.

The southwest elevation is gabled and blank.

The windows are predominantly four-pane timber sash and case. The roof is covered with graded grey slate and has a tiled ridge. Stone skews feature blocked skewputts, and there are coped gablehead stacks with circular cans. The property has cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior was not seen in 1999.

Boundary walls made of dry granite rubble enclose the southeast side of the house, and there is a retaining wall to the northwest.
