Description

Apsley Grange is a house that has been divided, originally built in the 15th century with late 19th-century extensions added to the front and rear. The left side features a timber frame with a rendered plinth and whitewashed roughcast cladding, complemented by stone rusticated quoins. The street-facing side on the right has plain and fishscale tile hanging, and the first floor gable on the left displays an applied timber frame. The left range has a Horsham slab roof, while the right side has a slate roof that is hipped at the left end. There is a rendered ridge stack to the right of the centre and a corbelled ridge stack at the rear of the left wing, along with two tall stacks at the rear of the parallel range on the right.

The building is two storeys high with an irregular arrangement of windows. The first floor features four casement windows. The ground floor projects to the right under a flat roof with a central gable, flanked by two 8-light mullion and transom windows beside a central square bay. To the left, there is a glazed door beneath a flat hood supported by fluted piers. The left return front has an offset truncated stack to the right and irregular fenestration with four casements on the first floor, including one eaves window. The ground floor has four windows, with a planked door in a porch recess to the right and a further 20th-century glazed door to the left in a pent-roofed porch.

On the right return front, there are two gables to the left and a two-bay range to the right at right angles. This range contains a central polygonal bay that projects under a turret roof, with a balcony on the first floor above a shaped gable that links the two halves and features glazed doors beneath a projecting flat hood.

Inside, the framing is visible in the left half of the house, with ceiling frames and a crown post roof in the former hall, along with some surviving panelling.
