Description
Glanhafren is a Regency-style building featuring a symmetrical three-bay front, two storeys, and an attic. The central bay is slightly advanced and has an open pediment decorated with billet moulding. The exterior is finished in whitened brick beneath a slate roof, which is topped with two brick end stacks. The entrance consists of a six-panelled front door with an overlight that has radial glazing, all set within a moulded door case that includes a small lead canopy. Above the door, there is a sash window that has been replaced with PVC-U, and in the attic gable, there is a lunette window with radial glazing. Each of the north and south bays features a 20-pane tripartite sash window on both storeys. These windows are set under flat arches made of gauged brickwork with splayed ends and have stone sills.
At the rear, there are three parallel wings, all constructed of brick and covered with slate roofs, featuring two brick eaves stacks. The northern wing is the widest, with the wings decreasing in size towards the south. The barge boards are plain. The central wing includes a wide two-storey canted bay window with a hipped roof and a tall axial stack. The sash windows in the bay have 12 panes, while those in the other areas have either 6 or 9 panes. The ground storey of the northern wing features 20th-century French windows set under a segmental brick arch. Additionally, a single-storey range projects northwards from the northern wing and has a 20th-century multi-pane casement window in the gable end.
Inside the front range, which consists of three bays, there is a hall in the central bay flanked by reception rooms. Notable interior details include ornate moulded plasterwork on the cornices and spine beams, as well as panelled shutters. Remnants of the former sub-medieval house can be found in the rear wings. The northern range contains a bake oven complex, which features a curved wall with three recesses that house a washing area, a bake oven, and a fireplace. On the opposite side of the stack, located in the current kitchen and northern wing, there is a blocked fireplace with a substantial lintel. This room showcases massive deeply chamfered spine and cross beams, along with subsidiary joists, all featuring ogee stops.
