Frilford Grange And Frilford Old Grange

Frilford Grange and Frilford Old Grange are two houses located in Frilford, built around 1840 for the Aldworth family, with Frilford Old Grange being a mid-18th century house situated at the rear. Frilford Grange features coursed and dressed limestone with ashlar dressings and banded rustication on the ground floor. It has a gabled Welsh slate roof, with brick ridge and end stacks, and is designed in a Franco-Italianate style with a single-depth plan. The building is two storeys high and has a four-window range. A round arch above the double-leaf doors includes a fanlight, while a three-bay porch with keyed round arches and pierced spandrels extends as a verandah across the gabled outer projections, which have tripartite French windows. The first-floor windows are set within twin basket arches adorned with carved busts on the outer keys. The two-bay centre features French windows set in moulded segmental-headed architraves, and the deep pine bracketed eaves add to its architectural detail. Inside, the mid-19th century interior includes marble fireplaces and a staircase.

Frilford Old Grange is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and has a gabled M-shaped stone slate roof with brick end stacks. It also has a double-depth plan and is two storeys high with a three-window range on the rear elevation. This includes a six-panelled door (two of which are glazed) with an overlight, flanked by a 20th-century window and a 19th-century four-light casement. The first floor features 20th-century windows and a mid-18th century three-light cross-window with leaded lights. A mid-19th century stucco extension is present on the side, and the rear service range, heightened in the early 19th century, has two 18th-century three-light leaded casements. The interior includes 18th-century panelled doors and a five-bay collar-truss with butt purlins.
