The Glebe, rectory in County Laois

What is recorded here

The Glebe near Durrow gave its coach house a grand triangular crown over the middle. You'd arrive to see the rector, take one look at the horse's accommodation and decide to confess to whoever lived in there.

Detached three-bay two-storey former rectory, c. 1750. Extended, c. 1825, comprising five-bay range. Detached three-bay coach house, c. 1750, to site with pedimented central breakfront. Detached gate lodge, c. 1850, to site.
