What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey former glebe house, built c. 1820, currently in use as parochial house. Skirt slate roof having rendered chimneystack to centre, and some cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast walls having painted smooth render plinth course. Square-headed openings having replacement uPVC windows, and limestone sills. Round-headed door opening having timber-panelled door with replacement fanlight, and limestone step. Set back from road. Outbuildings to rear, one being three-bay, two-storey, with pitched slate roof, sandstone walls, square-headed brick-arched openings and segmental-arched integral carriage entrance, all with timber battened fixtures.
The classical proportions of the house give it a sense of restrained grandeur most suitable to its function. The more utilitarian style of the outbuildings provide a contrast to that of the house. The change of use, from glebe house to parochial house, is a noteworthy feature. It forms a group with the adjacent former Church of Ireland church and graveyard.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
