Grange Farmhouse

Grange Farmhouse is a mid-16th century farmhouse with two storeys and a three-cell cross-entry plan. It features a timber-framed structure that is plastered, with a plaintiled roof and a central 17th-century red brick chimney. The farmhouse has 19th-century casement windows and a boarded door at the cross-entry position, which is sheltered by a light open porch supported by slender posts.

The building retains its complete mid-16th-century layout, with late 16th or early 17th-century alterations. The cross-passage remains intact, featuring twin doorways to service rooms, one of which has a visible 4-centred arched head above it. The parlour on the right displays ogee-and-scotia moulded beams. Inside, there is good tension-braced studding, a blocked diamond mullioned window, and indications of additional windows that once existed.

At the left end of the farmhouse, there are a pair of massive base-crucks that originally supported a half-hip roof, which has since been converted to a gable. In the late 16th or early 17th century, arch-braced tie-beams were removed from a narrow chimney bay and from above the hall when the current larger chimney was added, along with a newel staircase. The hall features good chamfered floor joists, which may also date from around 1600.
