The Grange

The Grange is a late 18th-century farmhouse with a 19th-century rear extension, front bay windows, and an entrance porch. The exterior is of squared chalk with brick dressings, bay windows, and a porch, with limewashed render. It has concrete pantile roofing and rendered stacks. The building is approximately square in plan, with a two-room central entrance on the south front, an original wing to the rear left, and a later adjoining wing in the angle.

It is two storeys high and has three bays, arranged symmetrically. A high brick plinth, quoins, and surrounds to openings are present. A projecting, flat-roofed, enclosed porch features a round-headed entrance with two-fold, half-glazed panelled doors, a moulded impost band, a hoodmould, and a painted moulded ashlar cornice. Canted bays flank the porch, with recessed plate glass sashes (those on the front having margin lights) set under rubbed brick, flat arches, stepped eaves and hipped roofs. Slightly recessed first-floor sashes include 12 panes in the centre and 16 panes to the sides, set in wooden architraves beneath segmental header arches. A plain wooden eaves board is also present. Stone-coped gables have shaped kneelers. Corniced end stacks are visible.

The left return forms a secondary front, featuring a slightly recessed four-bay wing on the left. This includes a plain board door to the left end and a part-glazed door to the right, contained within an 19th-20th century doorcase with fluted pilasters, a plain entablature, and a hood. Ground-floor sashes are 16-pane and unequal 15-pane, under segmental arches. First-floor openings in the original section contain 12-pane, 16-pane, and 20th-century casements. A stone-coped gable and axial stack are present.

Inside, there is an open well staircase with a moulded handrail, column-on-vase balusters with square knops, and a basket-arched alcove to the ground floor left, with panelled pilasters and archivolt. Features include four fielded-and-beaded-panel doors in architraves, panelled window shutters and window reveals.
