Description
Grange House is a mid-17th century house constructed from roughly-dressed stone and topped with a Welsh slate roof. It features two storeys plus attics and has five bays. The central three bays are adorned with two-light double-chamfered mullioned windows, while the outer bays have similar three-light windows. The house has a steeply-pitched gabled roof with kneelers and flat coping, and it includes three early 20th-century flat-topped dormers, as well as end and ridge stacks. The returns of the house also have similar windows. The rear wing contains 20th-century casements.
Inside, there are two 17th-century fireplaces: one has a flat lintel, and the other features a slightly arched lintel with a keystone. The interior displays old oak beams throughout, and the stout 17th-century roof timbers have principal rafters that die into the wall face.
