Description
The Grange is a farmhouse dated 1697, with 19th-century additions and alterations. It is constructed from sandstone rubble with roughly-dressed quoins and features a pantiled roof that has a double row of sandstone flags at the eaves, along with brick and stone chimney stacks. The building is two stories high and has a three-bay front. The central entrance has a 20th-century door set in an ovolo-chamfered surround, with a lintel that displays the initials EAI and the date 1697. The windows have chamfered surrounds, including an 18-pane horizontal sliding sash and a small 4-pane fire window to the left of the door, and a renewed 6-pane sash to the right. On the first floor, there is a central late 20th-century casement flanked by 18-pane horizontal sliding sashes.
At the rear, there is a gabled two-story single-bay wing that has an attached 19th-century outshut. The steeply-pitched roof features coped gables and a shaped kneeler on the left side, with a rebuilt left end brick chimney and a corniced right end stone chimney. There are attached farm buildings to the right and detached farm buildings to the rear, which are not of special interest.
