Description

Glebe House in Pitsligo dates from around 1770, with a later addition. It is a two-storey, three-bay house featuring a central entrance that is concealed by a later 19th-century gabled porch. The exterior is harled with tooled ashlar margins, and the south front has a regular arrangement of windows.

At the rear, there is a mid-19th-century two-storey wing with a piended roof and rear wallhead stacks. The original house has 12-pane glazing, while the wing has 4-pane glazing. The main house has coped end stacks and is topped with slate roofs.

To the west of the house, there is a walled garden enclosed by high rubble walls. Additionally, there is an early 19th-century single-storey U-plan steading, constructed of harled rubble with tooled ashlar margins. The centre bay of the steading rises to two storeys, featuring a central loft door that breaks the wallhead under a piended roof, all covered with local slate roofs.
