The Grange And Adjoining Boundary Wall And Stable

The Grange is a house with an adjoining boundary wall and stable, dating to 1656, with substantial additions from the early 18th century and the late 19th century. The main house is constructed of coursed square stone and brick, with brick and ashlar dressings, and features plain and patterned pantile roofs, some with coped gable ends. Numerous coped brick stacks are present, along with gabled sections. The house has two principal storeys, and a further two storeys with attics, presenting a wide nine-window front. Later 19th-century wooden framed casement windows with segmental heads are prevalent. A central brick-faced gable features two 19th-century stone mullioned windows with cornices, and above, a datestone inscribed "1656" is set within a corniced surround. Below the datestone are two similar three-light windows with cornices. To the left, a late 19th-century block is constructed of rockfaced stone with a plinth, coped gables, and two valley stacks. It features a three-light window above and a two-light window below, both with cornices and chamfered mullions.

An adjoining boundary wall extends approximately 10 metres, with chamfered brick coping and a centrally placed Tudor arched doorway with a cornice and panelled door. To the right of the main house is a late 19th-century range with three ridge stacks, including two through-eaves dormers with coped gables. The front features alternating smaller windows. Below are two-light windows flanked by larger three-light windows. A blocked doorway and a lower two-light window are also visible. A single bay has a two-light window above and two smaller two-light windows below. Further along, a single-story stable and outbuilding has a pantile roof, a two-light window, and a hatch door.

The rear elevation displays a gable with ashlar quoins, one bearing the graffito “1785,” in correspondence with the 1656 datestone. Later 19th-century fenestration is present, consisting of three windows with a central canted bay window on the ground floor. To the right is a late 19th-century rockfaced stone gable with a shallow two-story stone bay window, featuring a four-light stone mullioned cross casement on each floor. A through-eaves dormer and a single window are visible in the return angle. A coursed squared stone block with a banded plain tile roof, brick quoins, and two 19th-century through-eaves dormers stands to the left. Below, a mid-19th century canted brick bay window has a plain parapet and a large wooden framed cross casement. To the left again, an 18th-century block of coursed squared stone with brick quoins, coped gables, and an off-centre ridge stack, features two 19th-century three-light windows. Above, two off-centre through-eaves dormers with coped gables are present. Below is a two-light French window, flanked to the left by a smaller two-light window and to the right by a 19th-century gabled brick porch with a half-glazed door. A single bay addition, dating from approximately 1900, is situated at the left corner, boasting a hipped roof, canted corner, and a four-light corner window on the first floor.
