Gledswood is set on 65 hectares (150 acres) of pastoral land. The Gledswood estate is located off Camden Valley Way south of Raby Road, Catherine Field and was built by James Chisholm c.1830 on land granted to him in 1829. Gledswood was later renovated and upgraded, probably in the 1870's, to include the Gothic verandas and porches. The house has a long stone flagged front veranda on the north side with two gables breaking the eavesline and marking the entrances.
