Description

Gloup Haa is a late 18th century, two-storey and attic, three-bay symmetrical laird's house with a rectangular plan, located in Gloup, Yell. It features a single-storey service wing to the north, which includes a porch that clasps the northwest corner of the main house. The exterior has harled walls with margined windows and doors.

The east elevation, which is the principal facade, is symmetrical and includes a vertically-boarded timber door with a four-pane fanlight in the central bay, flanked by windows in the outer bays. The first floor has regular fenestration. The south gable has a small attic window on the right side. The west elevation, or rear, is also symmetrical, with windows at both the ground and first floors in the central bay, while the outer bays have windows only at the ground floor. The north gable features a two-bay design, obscured at the ground level by the service wing, with regular fenestration at the first floor.

The service wing has a window centered in its symmetrical east wall, while the north wall is asymmetrical with windows offset to the left of center and to the outer right. The west gable extends to the right as a porch with a timber door. The windows throughout the building are 12-pane timber sash and case. The principal roof is covered with fishscale tiles, while the service wing has a grey slate roof that is piended to the east. The skew-copes are rendered, and the gablehead stacks are harled with concrete copes and octagonal cans on the principal gables, while the service wing has a harled and coped gablehead stack.

Additionally, there is an L-plan random rubble garden wall that bounds the south and east sides of the garden to the east of the house.
