Description
Kington Grange is a house that likely has origins from the 16th century, with later additions and alterations made in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. The structure features small timber-framing with painted brick infill in the recessed central bay, while the left side is roughcast and the right side is made of painted brick. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has reddish-brown brick stacks.
The building has a double-pile plan with irregular additions. The exterior consists of two storeys on the left side and a single storey plus an attic on the right. The road-facing elevation has a four-window range, with single-storey additions on both sides. The entrance is located off-centre to the right and features a plank door within a moulded wood frame, set in a 20th-century brick porch. To the left, there are two three-light metal casement windows, and to the right, there is another three-light casement. On the first floor to the left, there are two-light wooden casements with lead cames, while the central timber-framed bay has a wide renewed window with glazing bars. The gabled bay on the right has a two-light casement window with glazing bars, and the roofs are gabled.
The garden facade has two storeys and five first-floor windows, with a first-floor band present. Metal multi-pane casements are used throughout. The central entrance features a part-glazed door with a divided overlight, and there is a dentil eaves band. The left end has some close-set exposed timbers. According to the Victoria County History, the house has a rectangular plan with a staircase wing on the north side and has undergone significant alterations. The south front, which was originally jettied, has been rebuilt with 18th-century brickwork. The ground floor at the east end shows close-set studding and a diagonal bracket that indicates a former overhang. The west end and staircase wing display square framing in their gabled heads. The interior has not been inspected.
