There is a good selection of both state and private schools in the nearby villages and the renowned Brentwood School is a little over 4 miles away. Descriptio n Old Kelvedon Grange is situated deep within mature grounds and was segregated from a larger detached building in c. 1976, an alteration carried out sympathetically. The house is constructed of timber frame with striking rendered and timbered elevations relieved by lead-light windows under a clay-tiled roof. The property is listed as being of Grade II of Architectural or Historical Interest and an extract from the listing states: “Formerly known as: The Grange, two houses adjoining. Early c.17, c.18 and late c.19…” Historical note: Terrier of 1610 records “The Rectory House of two storeys newly built.” This could date the brick stack inserted into a somewhat earlier smoke void and now occupying a smaller space. Further work in the 19th century, particularly when Reverend D W Peregrine spent £4,000 on the house and was responsible for the new wing at the south end and the ornamental timbering, apparently a tidy version of the early primary braced walling beneath. In 1931 the building ceased to be a rectory and was bought by Bertram Jones of Kelvedon Hall. Accommodation A timber door opens into a vestibule and in turn into an attractive dining room with exposed wooden floor and featuring an original hand water pump and brick fireplace.
