Description
Biggin Grange is a farmhouse with an attached garden wall, dating from the late 18th century, with a late 19th-century addition. The building is constructed of coursed limestone rubble, with gritstone dressings and quoins. It features a slate roof with a leaded ridge, stone coped gables with plain kneelers, and stone gable end stacks with plain banding. The farmhouse is two storeys high, in an L-plan, and has five bays.
The central entrance has a tall, narrow quoined doorcase with a four-panelled, raised and fielded door, topped by a large fanlight that has rectangular and lozenge tracery. On either side of the door are two glazing bar sash windows with long and short type surrounds, and there are five similar windows above, with the central one featuring a projecting keystone.
To the rear, there is a late 19th-century addition. The attached garden wall at the front is made of rubble with gritstone coping and includes tall gritstone piers that have a moulded fillet and cornice, with the left pier topped by a large acorn finial.
