Glebe Farm Magna Park, Lutterworth South. Historic Building Recording (OASIS ID: headland3-368670)

Hisrtoric building recording of late 18th earlier 19th century farmhouse, ancillary outbuildings and photographic record of modern nissen hut type outbuildings. The proposed development is located to the south of the A4303 Coventry Road, east of the A5, and to the west of the town of Lutterworth in Leicestershire. Glebe Farm itself is located in the north-east of the development area and is centred around NGR 452241 283885. The farmhouse is of a style typical of the 19th century, with few surviving external features. There is little architectural merit to the farmhouse and it would appear that there are few indications of surviving original features. There are a number of outbuildings which are in a poor state of repair. The farmhouse consists of an 'L-plan' arrangement with the frontage facing east. This frontage forms a three-storey, three-bay, gable ended structure. To the rear of this is a projecting three storey gabled block. The whole is rendered with pale cement and has modern double-glazed windows. An external inspection of the buildings at Glebe Farm was undertaken as part of the desk-based assessment to assess its likely significance in terms of built heritage. Few buildings of the complex as depicted on the 19th century Ordnance Survey mapping have survived. The surviving buildings consist of the main farmhouse, part of an eastern range of a farmyard, and a small part of a western range.
