Description
The Grange is a house dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, which was refronted in the 19th century and extended in the 20th century. It has a timber frame that is rendered, with colourwashed gault brick used for the front. The roof is machine tiled. The building has a three-cell lobby entry and a bay at the rear right, forming an L shape in plan. It stands two storeys tall.
The entrance is located in a hipped brick porch addition between the left and centre bays, featuring a six-panelled door and 20-pane glazing bar sash windows set in reveals, with slightly cambered heads on the ground floor and sprocket eaves. The original ridge stack has a large base and four octagonal shafts, one of which is taller, along with an additional square shaft added to the right. The left gable end is rendered and has a small pane horizontal sliding sash window on the first floor, with shaped brackets supporting a jettied attic and a moulded bressumer.
The roof is hipped to the right return and is also cased in 19th-century brick. There are French windows, a 16-pane sash window on the first floor, and a two-light casement. The two bays at the rear are from the 20th century and include an entrance and garages with a hipped roof. At the rear of the main range, there is a tile-coped oven projection behind the stack, scattered casements, and a lean-to outshut in the inner angle.
