Description
The Old Grange and attached stable wing is a house that dates from the 16th century or early 17th century, with a kitchen wing added to the rear in 1697. It was restored in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building features a timber frame with painted plaster infill panels and plain tile roofs, highlighted by a tall central gable. On the left side, there is a very large painted brick end chimney breast with paired tall brick stacks from the 19th century above it, while red brick paired and shafted stacks are located to the right of the center.
The house is two storeys high with an attic in the gable, showcasing framing of three square panels at the eaves level and straight braces. The windows are arranged irregularly, including a 5-light centre oriel bay under the apex of the gable and a similar window below it on the first floor, both featuring ovolo-moulded mullions and resting on heavy brackets, suggesting they are original. There are triple casement windows on both floors to the right, an 8-light ovolo-moulded mullion and transom bay oriel to the left with a shallow pentice hood above, and a 3-light square bay oriel with a shallow pentice hood to the left of center. Square lattice windows are present throughout the building. Half-glazed doors are located under small pentice hoods on brackets to the left and right.
To the right, there is a long 19th-century red brick stable range. The rear wing is also constructed of brick, featuring chequer and diaper patterns. Inside, the layout follows a cross-passage plan. The Hall contains a floor tile dated 1673, while the parlour has a fireplace dated 1608. The Hall, parlour, and best room on the first floor are all panelled. A staircase with turned balusters leads to the first floor and attic.
