Description
Grittenham Farmhouse is a large farmhouse with a history dating back to the 15th century. The current structure appears to have been built in three parts. The east side features three parallel ranges, with the north and central ranges likely being a 16th-century timber-framed building that has red brick infilling in the north wall. The east gable of the central range is tile-hung and oversailing. The south range, dated internally to 1625, was probably constructed by Edward Pratt, who served as the Overseer of the Parish poor-rate in 1620, and is made of stone. It has casement windows with mullions made of cement-coated red brick, some of which are blocked. The entire building has a tiled roof.
The west front was added in 1682, featuring the date and the initials P. This section is built of stone with red brick dressings and quoins, also with a tiled roof. The farmhouse is two storeys high with three windows on the front. Inside, there is a fireplace with a stone shelf, which bears the date 1625 and the initials E.P., I.P., and T.S., along with other notable features.
