Description
Glaspant is a country house built around 1800 to 1820, which incorporates a smaller house from the 18th century. It was restored from 1975. The exterior was originally colourwashed roughcast with a slate gabled roof and renewed bargeboards; it now features a mix of stucco and exposed stone. The southwest front has a regular five-window, two-storey layout with loft windows in the end walls. The windows are renewed 12-pane sashes, with false sashes to the left of the doorway. The central doorway is broad and arched, adorned with fine timber tracery in the fanlight and traceried sidelights, topped by a pediment with a small-paned tripartite lunette. The eaves and pediment have timber modillion cornices.
The southeast end has a single-storey double-hipped projection featuring a 12-pane sash window to the southwest, a half-glazed door, and paired hornless 12-pane sashes to the southeast. The northwest end has 12-pane sashes with rough stone voussoirs, which were exposed in 1993, and brick heads above the loft windows.
The rear range consists of two lower storeys, with renewed stucco and various renewed windows on the southeast front, including some sashes and some metal casements, along with a 20th-century porch. There are also two renewed stacks. Behind this, to the northwest, is a rubble stone range with a half-hipped northwest gable and an angle stack, as well as a parallel gabled range that was formerly a granary.
Inside, the southeast ground floor room features two arched alcoves and a mid-19th-century slate fireplace on the east end wall. There are two ceiling borders, one scrolled and one reeded with leaf scrolls. The central hallway has a renewed arch that opens onto a lateral staircase with stick balusters and moulded tread ends. The smaller southwest room has a simple plaster cornice. The doors are six-panel with Regency-style architraves that are reeded with angle blocks, and there are panelled shutters. In the single-storey east end section, there is a room with two arched alcoves. The rear range contains two timber lintel fireplaces, one of which has a scratched date of 1741.
