Description

Wormingford Grange is a medieval house, likely from the 16th century, designed in an H plan. It is timber framed and plastered, with windows that were updated in the 19th century to include leaded casements. The front slope of the hall roof features two dormers, one of which is large and has four casements. There is also a Venetian window on the right-hand crosswing. The roofs are covered with peg tiles and have 19th-century vergeboards, along with a central red brick chimney stack and an additional stack on each crosswing. The building has seen many additions over time.
