The Grange Hall was built in 1912,[2] and the building has changed little since.[3]

It was listed "for its architectural integrity as well as for its association with the national Grange movement."[3]

It is a one-and-a-half-story building, clapboarded, with a "distinctive shed roof" and a front-facing gable. Its front porch, rebuilt in 2021, includes original or restored balusters, "corner posts with ornamental turnings and scrolled sawn brackets."[3] Two cornerstones show "1912" and "L.I.G." Apparently ten cents was the price to have your name recorded in paper within one of the cornerstones.[3]

Side and rear

Its lower level is accessible from the side and includes kitchen facilities.[3]

The Manchester Ink Link online newspaper has published photos of the main meeting space and of the exterior.[4][5]
