Pytchley Grange Farmhouse And Short Flanking Fences And Gates

Pytchley Grange Farmhouse, built in 1768 with mid-19th century alterations, features coursed and squared limestone and a hipped slate roof. The building has a chamfered plinth, a first-floor band, and quoins. It stands two storeys high with three bays and a symmetrical south front that includes a central 20th-century reeded doorcase with a five-panel door and an 18th-century fanlight. Flanking the door are mid-19th century scrolled cast iron posts. The first-floor band is inscribed 'Pychley 1768 Grange', and above it is a 6/6 sash window. Each side of the central entrance has a flat-roofed two-storey bow window, each with a 19th-century tripartite sash on both floors. Additionally, there are mid-19th century cast iron double gates and a wicket, supported by skeleton piers and a short railing, measuring a total of 7 meters in length. The west front features a near-central glazed door, with two 6/6 sash windows to its right, all adorned with keystoned heads. To the left is a large 20th-century canted bay window, followed by a round window. Above, there is an off-centre 6/9 sash flanked by two 6/6 sashes on the left and a 20th-century sham sash on the right, all with keystoned heads.
