Description
Park Grange Farmhouse is a house dating from the mid to late 17th century. It is constructed of coursed gritstone and ashlar, topped with a graduated stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and three bays, with quoins at the corners. There is a board door located between the first and second bays, featuring cyma and hollow moulding, and a three-centred head with weathered carving in relief that reads "F 16?? H".
The farmhouse has recessed chamfered mullion windows throughout, with configurations of five, six (one with a missing ovolo king mullion), and five lights on the ground floor, all under a continuous dripmould that steps down to the left of the central and right windows. The first floor has windows with four, six (with king mullion), and four lights. A large corniced stack is positioned to the right, and a single-flue stack is located on the ridge between the second and third bays.
To the left, there is an added two-bay range that is not of special interest. The right return features reused recessed chamfered stonework for two windows on both the ground and first floors, along with blocked paired single-light chamfered windows at the apex, which have three projecting bands above.
While the interior was not inspected during the resurvey, it has been reported to contain a very fine stone fireplace with a moulded chamfer that extends across a massive two-stone lintel, which is cut to a shallow arch and features the initials "F H" in the spandrels. This fireplace is located in the central room opposite the entrance, with a projecting stone staircase built out at the rear on the other side of the stack. The farmhouse is also said to retain its original king-post roof trusses. The careful dressing of the masonry on the facade is notable, similar to that of the Manor House porch.
