Description
Grange Farmhouse is an 18th-century farmhouse located on Ramsholt Road in Alderton. It is built of red Flemish bond brick and originally had a thatched roof, which has since been replaced with plain tiles. The building is two storeys high with an attic and features a symmetrical five-bay front. There are doorways on either side of the center, each with six-panel doors where the upper two panels are glazed and the lower four are raised and fielded. The doors have panelled reveals and lugged, moulded surrounds.
On the ground floor, there are three windows located at the center and on either side, all horned and featuring 3x4 panes with flat-arched heads. A band of three bricks in depth separates the ground and first floors. The first floor has five windows, each with 3x4 panes, along with three dormer windows in the attic that have flat roofs. The chimney stacks are positioned at the left of center and at both gable ends. At the rear of the farmhouse, there is a projecting, lower two-storey wing on the left.
