Description
Glenlora House, built around 1840, is an asymmetrical two-storey, four-bay house featuring a slightly advanced, pedimented three-storey entrance bay and a low two-storey, two-bay wing to the north. The house is constructed of ashlar stone. The entrance includes a recessed door with sidelights, approached by balustraded steps and a balustraded porch supported by two pairs of Roman Doric columns. Above the porch, there are corniced, round-headed bipartite windows. The second floor displays urns recessed in the curved angles, with one window, an eaves band, angle margins, a mutule cornice, and a blank crest to the pediment. The left bay features a projecting balustraded ground floor bipartite window, while the right bay has a round-headed tripartite window. The first floor has three four-pane sash windows, and sash windows are used throughout the building. It has deep projecting eaves, single and grouped corniced stacks, and a piended slate roof that is gabled over the central bay. The low wing to the north is made of coursed squared whinstone with ashlar dressings and has a gabled outer bay with a variety of windows. The south elevation features a slightly advanced, pedimented left bay with single, bipartite, and canted windows.
Inside, there is some decorative plasterwork and late 19th-century wooden panelling. The property also includes square, panelled gatepiers with mutule cornices and cast-iron gates.
Additionally, there is a single span round-arched bridge, likely built around the same time as the house, which crosses a deep gully. The bridge is made of coursed rubble with a balustraded parapet, square piers, and a splayed south approach, all constructed of ashlar stone.
