The Grange on the High Road was one of Chigwell's oldest houses, dating from the 15th century, but it was demolished after a fire in 1939. This building was the estate farm house that was built in the 1880s or 1890s. (It appears on the Ordnance Survey map of 1896 but not on the map of 1882.) It too has been fire damaged and is now sadly derelict and gutted.
