The farmhouse is believed to date back to the early 17th century, when it was called The Grange, although there is some evidence of buildings being on the land in the time of Henry III. There were connections between those who lived here and the owners of Barrs Court and other local estates. By 1977 the farmhouse had fallen into disrepair and was purchased by Kingswood District Council and rebuilt.

During further building work in 2009 the dovecote was revealed at the back of the farmhouse, a feature which has been retained and restored.
