Description

60 Grange Road is a lodge designed by David Bryce in 1847, with additions made by J G Adams in 1890. This two-storey building has a rectangular plan and features three bays, which were extended to four bays on the west side in 1890. It is constructed of stugged ashlar with polished ashlar dressings, showcasing architraved and chamfered reveals, as well as ashlar mullions. The building has a base course and overhanging timber eaves.

The south elevation, which serves as the entrance, displays four gabled bays. The central bay of the original lodge is advanced and features a cavetto-corbelled first-floor basket-arched chamfered doorway with a modern door. There are bipartite timber mullioned windows on the returns, and a tripartite window at the first floor. On the ground floor, there are tripartite windows flanking the outer right side, which break the eaves in a gabled dormer head at the first floor. To the left of the door, there is a single-storey corniced and slab-canopied, five-light canted window, with a tripartite window above it. Additionally, there are square blank tablets set in the gable heads and a tripartite window at the ground floor to the outer left, with a bipartite window above.

The east elevation features a full-height canted window that sweeps to the gable head, with a cill course, a string course dividing the storeys beneath a panelled apron, and a band course above the first-floor windows. A square blank tablet is also set in the gable head.

On the west elevation, there is a bipartite window that breaks the eaves in a gabled dormer head. The north elevation, facing Grange Road, has a gabled bay at the centre and irregular single and bipartite fenestration, along with a secondary entrance that has a modern door. There is also a square blank tablet set in the gable head.

The building features three-pane windows with central casement panels, a variegated fish-scale slate roof with lead flashing, and tall paired diamond wallhead stacks on the north side, which are original to the end wall and have double cornices. There is a group of four stacks on the west side, along with moulded cans and some original rainwater goods.

The interior was not seen in 1990.
