Historical Note

The house is thought to have been substantially constructed in the late 18th andearly 19th centuries, however, the centre area is believed to date fromapproximately 1825 and evolved from an earlier 18th century house.

Over the years The Grange has been upgraded and modernised by the currentowners into a comfortable family home with significant ancillary and secondaryaccommodation. In particular, great thought and attention has been paid tolandscaping the grounds over a period of many years. They are now mature withboundary screening providing a high degree of privacy. In particular, the southernelevation and terrace of the house benefit from outstanding vistas over sweepinglawns down to the lake and beyond.

Moulton Grange is now listed Grade II as being of historical and architectural interest.
