Residence, 1 Glebe Street is a very good representative example of one of the few Post World War Two Austerity architectural style residential developments in York.
The single storey residence addresses its corner location on minimal setback to both street frontages. The dominant rectangular face brick chimney features horizontal contrasting brickwork every six courses from ground level. Flat concrete ‘eyebrow’ supported by slender steel posts are evident in curved form over the protruding front room, and a square version over the front entry porch, typical of the 1950s period. The roof is a simple hipped form clad with tiles. The windows are typically in sets of three casements with horizontal detailing. The feature window set facing the secondary street has the central picture window flanked by casements, also characterising the architectural style.
In 1966 Earnest Barrett Lennard owned the property.
