Description
Glebe Field Hall, located in Keig, is a building likely designed by John Smith in 1834, with the eastern range converted in the 1930s. Originally, it was a U-plan steading with the northern range now reduced to a boundary wall that encloses a courtyard. This courtyard includes a former stable with a hayloft to the west and a further range that has been converted into a hall on the east side. The exterior features lime harl over rubble.
The stable and hayloft is a rectangular-plan range. On the southeast elevation, there is a gabled facade with a door on the right at ground level and a hayloft opening in the gablehead, both fitted with boarded timber doors. The southwest elevation has a door to the left of center and two small air vents to the right. The northwest elevation features a gabled facade with two windows at ground level and a single window in the gablehead. The northeast elevation, facing the courtyard, has a broad two-leaf boarded timber door on the right and another opening to the left.
The hall is an L-plan range. Its southeast elevation has a gabled facade with two windows at ground level and another window in the gablehead. The northeast elevation includes two widely spaced ventilation slits, which are now glazed. The northwest elevation has a gabled facade with a later small lean-to timber porch positioned to the right of center. The southwest elevation, facing the courtyard, features an almost full-height gabled projection on the outer left, which incorporates a deep-set door on the return to the right and a window immediately to the right on the set-back face of the hall. The stable range is roofed with Scotch slate, while the hall has Welsh slate. Both sections have ashlar-coped skews with moulded skewputts.
A semicircular-coped rubble wall links the northwest elevations and forms the U-plan courtyard. This wall has a small ventilation-type opening to the left and a broad pedestrian opening to the right.
The interiors of the hall were altered in the 1930s, while the stable has been largely renewed.
