Description
Grange Farm Cottage is a farmhouse that has been converted into offices. It dates back to the 17th century and was remodeled in the early 19th century, with some late 20th-century additions and alterations. The original timber frame has largely been replaced by early 19th-century red brick, and the roofs are covered with machine and plain tiles. The building is arranged in an L-shape, consisting of a hall range with two framed bays and a slightly later two-bay cross-wing that projects to the left. The hall range is one storey with an attic, while the cross-wing is two storeys high and features a dentilled floor band.
The hall range has 20th-century casements with 19th-century segmental heads and 20th-century gabled eaves dormers on either side of a central late 20th-century porch. The cross-wing has paired segmental-headed 20th-century casements on the first floor and a contemporary segmental-headed casement on the ground floor. The gable end of the hall range reveals an exposed collar and tie beam truss, while the cross-wing shows single-purlin ends. There is a red brick ridge stack with paired and rebated shafts to the left of the hall range, as well as an internal end stack in front of the ridge to the right.
Inside, the timber frame (with square panels) is exposed in the cross-wall of the hall range, and there are chamfered spine beams and heavy joists throughout. The massive stack in the hall range features an inglenook fireplace with a segmental wooden lintel on the ground floor. Additionally, there are two 18th-century inset wall cupboards with H-hinges located in the right gable end of the hall range on the ground floor. The hall range has a single-purlin roof supported by three collar and tie beam trusses with straight windbraces, and one of the left trusses has wattle and daub infill exposed in one of the panels.
