Description
Headley Grange is a large house that was originally built as a House of Industry (workhouse) in 1795 by the parishes of Bramshott, Headley, and Kingsley. It is historically associated with riots in 1830 and was sold in 1870, at which time minor changes were made to the building. The structure features stone walls and a tiled roof, with a symmetrical front (west) that has two storeys and an attic, comprising nine windows. The second and third bays are now obscured by a two-storey Victorian splayed bay with three windows.
The building has a mansard roof with brick dentil eaves and five dormers with steep gables, which were added around 1870 and feature cusped bargeboards. The bay has a hipped roof, and the wings also have hipped roofs. The walls are made of ashlar ironstone with brick dressings, including quoins, cambered openings, and a plinth; the cills were lowered around 1870. The windows are Victorian sashes.
A central Gothic stone porch is present, featuring a steep gable, decorative kneelers, buttresses, and a cambered chamfered opening below a relieving arch. The porch also has a plinth, side windows, and coupled doors. The rear (east) elevation mirrors the front, being symmetrical with a central projecting wing and four windows on each side. There are five original flat-roofed dormers with moulded cornices and coupled leaded lights, along with some original leaded lights in coupled oak frames, although some former windows have been filled in.
An additional two-storey flat-roofed block has been added to the building. On the south side, a single-storey wing extends for some distance, beyond which is a stone wall. At the southeast corner, there is a rectangular building with a half-hipped roof. The design is repeated on the north side, which features shorter buildings and two lengths of wall. The east boundary of the enclosure is marked by a high wall with a central gateway, flanked by piers.
