Shilling Grange and Shilling Old Grange Cottage
(Formerly listed as Shilling Old Grange and No 16)
23.1.58
GV
I
A large C15 and later timber-framed and plastered building with a tiled roof. The whole building was refronted in the late C17 but the south part was heavily restored in the 1920s when the timber-framing was exposed and the front returned to its original half timbered style.
At the rear there is a courtyard with jettied gables and arched doorways. It was this house which Isaac Taylor the engraver and father of Jane and Ann Taylor ("Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star") rented for £6 per annum in 1736. The family moved to No 17 (Arundel House) in 1793. Two storeys and attics. Shilling Grange has a good C18 plastered front with pebbledash rusticated panels and a wood modillion eaves cornice. Three window range the upper storey has two two-light leaded casements and one double-hung sash window with glazing bars, and the ground storey has double-hung sashes with glazing bars. A six-panel door with a semi-circular fanlight with fan glazing has a fine wood doorcase with fluted pilasters and an open dentilled pediment. The north side has a blocked four-centred arch with carved spandrels.
The south part has three jettied gables on the front and all the timber-framing is exposed. The upper storey is jettied on the whole front and there is a beam carved with ribbon ornamentation. There are two four-light mullioned windows on each storey flanked by high level mullioned windows which extend across the whole front. There is a modern "old style" porch entrance. The south side has exposed timber framing, leaded casements and a four-centred arched doorway with carved spandrels.
The interior has many interesting features and there are large cellars.
