Grange Farmhouse And Adjoining Farm Buildings

Grange Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse with 18th-century additions and 19th-century alterations, accompanied by service rooms, a stable with a granary above, and a pigsty. The construction is timber framed, with brick cladding, rendered sections, and brickwork. The roofs are hipped, gabled, and include a lean-to section, covered with pantiles. Distinctive features include plain, rebated, and dentillated eaves, a single coped gable with kneelers, two ridge stacks, two side wall stacks, and two gable stacks. The building has a U-plan and is two and three storeys high, extending over three bays plus two bays. Most windows are glazing bar Yorkshire sash windows.

The south front features a projecting gabled wing to the west and a gabled stable and pigsty to the east. A 19th-century corner extrusion with a lean-to roof includes a glazing bar fixed light. A 19th-century close-boarded door stands to the right, flanked by a 19th-century window and an 18th-century window. To the right of that is an 18th-century plank door, followed by a slatted opening with a segmental head. Further along, there is an opening containing a brick and stone stairway. A gable to the right has a single stable door with a timber lintel, above which is a 19th-century window, a fixed light, and an 18th-century window. Another gable features a slatted casement with a timber lintel, flanked by remains of alighting shelves, and above it, a blocked round opening. The west front of the house has three 19th-century windows on each floor. The east front has a re-set 19th-century door to the left, and above it, a single window to the right. The outbuildings’ west front features a stable door with a segmental head on the left, followed by a damaged opening with a feeding trough and two stable doors with timber lintels. The east side of the outbuildings has a 19th-century and 20th-century lean-to addition, with a stable door and three 20th-century casements. The north side incorporates a hatch, a door with a segmental head flanked by garage doors with timber lintels, and four 19th-century windows and two plank hatches. Above, a gable displays a single sash window.

The interior reveals a mud and stud wall, a single bay post, chamfered span beams, an 18th-century winder staircase with square newels and stick balusters, two 18th-century fielded panelled doors, three 19th-century panelled doors, an 18th-century moulded fireplace bressummer, a brick fireplace with an adjoining oven recess, two 19th-century fire surrounds, and a 19th-century kitchen range.
