Description
The Grange is a house built in 1846, possibly by the architect Donthorne. It is constructed of brick with stone and moulded brick dressings and has a slate roof. The building features two storeys and a west facade with three bays, highlighted by a moulded string course and a cusped, crenellated parapet. The right-hand bay has a gabled design with a corbelled stack, which is dated 1846 and bears the initials CMH along with a stone panel depicting a unicorn. The windows are Tudor style, consisting of two-light mullioned designs with blind-boxes and hood moulds. The left-hand bays also have a cusped and crenellated parapet, and there are iron gargoyle heads on the drain pipes. The house has two stacks with clustered shafts that are decorated with moulded terracotta.
On the south face, there are two bays with corner pilasters and a corbel table. The doorway features a moulded brick 4-centre arch, with a glazed door that has intersecting tracery and a blank lower panel. The ground floor window is a two-light mullioned and transomed design, while the upper windows mirror those on the west facade. Access is provided by stone steps that have gothic cast iron balusters. At the rear, there are two lower two-storey ranges, with some windows featuring stone cusped heads. A three-bay service range includes iron lattice windows, some of which have been replaced. There is also a later porch that incorporates a re-used moulded brick doorway.
Inside, the staircase has iron balusters that alternate between decorated and plain square sections, topped with a wreathed handrail. The window shutters have a linen-fold detail on the outer face, and the dining room features linen-fold panelling that is said to have been brought to the house from Lincolnshire in the 1950s.
