Description
Glasmor is a large, 2-storey, L-plan farmhouse built from coursed local rubble with limestone ashlar detailing, topped by a slate roof with oversailing verges. The main block features two windows, while a one-window section steps down and adjoins to the left. The main block has simple end chimneys with plain cornices, while the left section has a late 19th-century, star-shaped end chimney made of brick with a simple cornice band. The near-symmetrical primary section has a central entrance accessed through a part-open, gabled wooden porch on a slate-stone plinth, featuring a 6-panel door with a simple rectangular overlight. Both floors have 16-pane unhorned sash windows with projecting slate sills and cambered heads, supported by limestone voussoirs. The left block has a tripartite window with prominent quoins on each floor; the ground floor window has a cambered head, with plain Victorian sashes that include a 4-pane central section and narrow flanking 2-pane sections.
The rear elevations are made of whitened rubble. The primary section includes a lower, gabled rear wing with an end chimney, featuring a 4-pane sash window on the first floor and modern windows on its right return, with the first-floor window set within a simple gabled dormer. In the angle between the main block and its rear projection is a 2-part rubble lean-to with a slated roof; the larger left-hand section has a part-glazed entrance and two modern windows to the left. The rear of the additional block has 12-pane unhorned sash windows on both floors, with cambered stone heads and quoins painted black.
The interiors are plain and date from the 19th century, featuring simple architraves around panelled doors and a straightforward stick baluster staircase.
