Description
Number 31, known as The Grange, along with the attached rear walls, The Wooden Spoon, and Numbers 33 and 35, known as The County Gallery, includes an outbuilding. The Grange is a pair of houses and two shops, with a datestone from 1710 located on the rear wing. It features extensions from around 1830 and a conservatory added around 1850. The building is constructed of Flemish bond brick set on a limestone rubble plinth, with flared headers on the front. It has a gabled stone slate roof and brick stacks at the ridge and rear gable end. The structure is L-shaped, with a rear left wing and a through-passage to the right. It stands two storeys tall with an attic and has a four-window range. There are flat brick arches over a late 18th-century six-panelled door, which has two glazed panels, and over six-pane sash windows with shutters. A raised storey band and a moulded brick cornice are also present. The building has two roof dormers featuring 20th-century casements.
At the rear, there is a stairwell and extensions from around 1830 made of similar materials, with margin-light sashes, and a central conservatory added around 1850. A wall on the rear left extends approximately 60 metres and is made of early 18th-century chequer brick with stone coping. A wall on the rear right extends approximately 70 metres and consists of early 18th-century chequer brick and early 19th-century rat-trap bond in the rear section. Inside, there are boxed beams and a butt-purlin roof, along with a chamfered beam, a chamfered stone fireplace, and a spice cupboard in the rear left room. An early 19th-century staircase is also present. The long range to the right of The Grange dates from the early to mid-18th century and is made of similar materials. It has two storeys, a storey band, and a similar mid-19th-century extension with a two-window range to the right, which is likely an early 19th-century former flax-drying mill with a gallery and drying racks in the similar rear wing.
