Some of the buildings have exposed ceiling-beams and original fireplaces. … (18) Glebe House, on the E. side of the road, 80 yards N. of the church, retains some original stone-mullioned windows with labels; the front doorway has moulded jambs and four-centred head; in the front wall is a sunk panel with the initials and date V.S. 1669.
