Description
Grange Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 18th century, which likely incorporates a core from the 16th or 17th century, along with alterations and additions from the mid to late 19th century. The building features coursed brick on coursed sandstone rubble, as well as coursed grey sandstone rubble with red brick dressings and some rendered areas. It has a timber-framed core and plain tile roofs. The structure is arranged in a T-plan and consists of three rooms with a 19th-century wing at the rear. It stands three storeys tall, with a one-storey and attic wing.
The southeast front has a toothed brick eaves cornice, an off-centre brick ridge stack to the left, and an external brick end stack to the right. The facade has four bays, primarily featuring mid to late 19th-century segmental-headed three-light wooden casements, with the exception of two-light wooden casements on the second floor, a two-light segmental-headed casement on the first floor in the second bay from the right, and blind windows on the first and ground floors in the left-hand bay. There is a basement window to the right, a 20th-century glazed door in the second bay from the right, and a 19th-century gabled brick porch with a segmental archway. The left-hand end wall has been rebuilt in late 19th-century brick and is partly rendered. A gabled eaves dormer is present on the rear wing.
While the interior has not been inspected, it is noted to contain some 16th or 17th-century features, including a central ground floor ceiling frame with chamfered intersecting beams and chamfered joists with ogee stops, as well as a large open fireplace with a chamfered lintel.
