Description

Grange Farmhouse and gin gang is a farmhouse built in the mid-18th century and 19th century, incorporating earlier work. It features thinly-rendered sandstone rubble with quoins and ashlar dressings, and the roofs are covered with concrete tiles and Welsh slate, complete with stone gable copings and brick chimneys. The main house consists of two sections: it is two storeys high with one section having three bays and the other having one bay. The attached farm building to the right is two storeys tall and has nine bays, making a total of thirteen bays.

The main house's first section has central double partly-glazed doors framed in an architrave, with plain stone surrounds for the late 19th-century sash windows, which are paired on the ground floor. Similar sash windows are found in the section to the left. The roof features moulded kneelers and three corniced ridge chimneys set on stone plinths, along with a gabled rear right wing.

The farm building on the right has a boarded door beneath a chamfered lintel, dated 1624, which is integrated into the house with long-and-short stone left jambs and alternate-block right jambs. It also includes two boarded Dutch doors, fixed lights with vertical lights and opening transoms, and side stone steps leading to a first-floor boarded Dutch door in the eighth bay. Similar windows are located above to the right, and there are boarded pitching openings in the first and third bays, along with central first-floor pigeon holes and shelves.

Behind the right end bay, there is a circular low gin gang wall that connects with a retaining wall leading to a lower ground level. Inside the house, there are some dado rails and panelled keyed round-headed cupboards with shaped shelves. A cross passage connects the early door between the house and the farm building.
