Description

Sleningford Grange is a country house built in the mid-18th century, with 19th-century additions. The structure features coursed rubble and cobbles, topped with a stone slate roof. It stands two storeys high and has three first-floor windows, along with an added wing at the rear right that connects to a parallel rear range.

The main entrance is a central 20th-century glazed door, which is adorned with a fanlight and supported by columns that hold up an entablature and a dentilled cornice. On either side of the entrance are canted bay windows with sash windows that include glazing bars. On the first floor, there is a central recessed sash window with glazing bars, flanked by Venetian windows, all featuring keyed architraves and imposts. The house has an eaves band, a hipped roof, and a brick stack located at the rear of the ridge.

On the right side of the house, the main structure features a large quoined external stack that is sealed off at the eaves level on the left, and a canted bay window on the ground floor with a sash window above, both equipped with glazing bars. The added wing includes a central glazed door beneath a portico supported by Doric columns, with flanking sash windows on the ground and first floors, both featuring glazing bars, and ridge stacks on either side.

The parallel gabled rear range has a 16-pane sash window with margin lights on the left and a 9-pane sash window above it, along with kneelers and a ridge stack.
