St Anne's Grange is a two-storeyed farmhouse, probably built in the late C16th or early C17th. It is timber-framed and covered with modern rough-cast. The plan is rectangular with a modern addition at the South end. On the ground floor, one room has a moulded C15th ceiling beam, possibly from the priory, (see SP83SW32.) In the grounds are many pieces of stone tracery brought from the church, (SP83SW53), when it was restored. Built into the walls of the garden are other carved stones including C13th wall-shafts and moulded bases, all brought from neighbouring cottages destroyed by fire at different times, and were probably originally from the priory. Condition - Of house, good, much altered (B2).
