NORNEY GRANGE.
1897
Shackleford, Surrey.
For the Reverend
Leighton Grane.
Additions and
alteration to the house in 1903.
Unexecuted designs for new stable buildings and cottage for J. G. Wainwright, 1903.
The house was restored by Jack
Warshaw.
The walls are roughcast, the windows
mostly have stone dressings and the roofs are covered with green slates.
The house is broadly divided into two parts following the lifestyle of the
period
with the larger and more impressive family accommodation on one
side
and staff accommodation and service areas on the other. (Savills)

Stable Cottage
Stable Cottage provides three bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and two reception
rooms together with garaging for several cars and a stable block, Stable Lodge
is the larger of the two cottages and is access of the Shackleford Road.
(Savills) In Ian Hamerton's opinion,
the stable lodge at Shackleford Road was probably designed for Wainwright by one of the Müntzer
family, most likely Thomas, son of the original builder and a pupil of Voysey.
