Description
Heywood Grange is a farmhouse dated 1672, with possible earlier elements and 20th-century alterations. It is constructed from coursed dressed and squared stone of fine quality, topped with a tiled roof featuring verge parapets on corbelled kneelers and brick ridge stacks. The building has a hall and cross-wing plan, with two storeys and a gable-lit attic. The three-window front includes a projecting, gabled cross-wing on the left, which has a single range of windows and a small 2-light blind chamfered mullioned opening in the attic.
The ground and first floors feature 20th-century 3-light casements, although the former retains a 17th-century chamfered reveal. The long set-back hall wing has a single range of 20th-century windows to the right, while the front is interrupted by a two-storey gabled porch. This porch has a labelled round-arched window with three lights on the first floor above the entrance. A moulded string at first floor level steps over a heavy Tudor arch lintel inscribed with "IS 1672," and the spandrels are moulded. The door is a 20th-century six-panel design. The moulded string continues along the side elevations of the porch, which features small circular lights set in a diamond-shaped reveal at ground level.
