Description
The Grange is a house located on Burgh Castle High Road, originally built in the early 17th century and rebuilt in the early 18th century. It underwent significant alterations in the 1760s and again between 1977 and 1982. The building is constructed of brick and features black glazed pantiles on the front (south) and concrete pantiles on the rest of the roof.
The south facade, dating from the 1760s, is two stories tall with a dormer attic and consists of seven bays. The outer bays are blank and rendered, while the central bay is slightly projected and framed by pilasters. It has a central half-glazed door beneath a flat 20th-century portico supported by octagonal piers. The windows are all renewed sashes with glazing bars, with those on the ground floor set under segmental arches. The eaves cornice has been renewed with modillions. The roof is bell-based with internal gable end stacks.
To the east, there is a mid-19th century gabled cross wing made of gault bricks, which is two stories high. The west gable features a diaper pattern made of burnt headers and has one window below a hood mould, which contains two lights and ovolo moulded mullions (the mullions have been renewed and are only visible from the interior). At the rear, a small section of early 17th-century brickwork remains between two large gabled 18th-century cross wings.
Inside, the rear room retains an early 17th-century four-centred fireplace with roll moulded jambs and plain rosettes in the spandrels. The roof structure includes tie beams, two tiers of taper-tenoned butt purlins, collars, and arched windbraces, while the rest of the interior is from the 20th century.
