Description

Grange Farm Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th century and the 19th century. It features a timber-framed structure with plaster and roughcast rendering. The front wall and small extensions at the rear are cased in painted 19th-century brick. The roof is steeply pitched and covered with plain tiles, featuring a ridge stack with a string course that is also rendered, along with a large side stack that has offsets on the rear wall.

The cottage has a single range plan consisting of three rooms, with a lobby entry and a stair turret located at the rear off the hall/kitchen. It is two storeys high. The front wall showcases 19th-century windows, including three recessed first-floor windows, all of which are modern, and six ground-floor windows, four of which have 19th-century segmental arches. There are two doorways with similar 19th-century arches and a blocked opening at the west end.

Inside, the cottage features exposed wall framing, a repaired inglenook, and a 19th-century staircase situated in the 17th-century stair turret.
