Summary : Early 18th century farmhouse on the site of a 13th century monastic grange and possible 12th century mansion. Possible remains of a moat.
More information : [SK 44353807] Boyah Grange [TI]. (1) Boyah Grange: "According to Rev. Charles Kerry (a) the house of Ralf f. Geremund occupied the site ... "but there is no evidence to support the statement". In about 1180 there was..a 'Mansion' here, built since the time of f Geremund (v.1166(b)), but which had evidently disappeared by the middle of the thirteenth century, when de Muskham was writing his Chronicle... The large quadrangular depression which is still visible round the present building may well have been the moat of the .. 'Mansion'; today it is nearly all dry, but two portions still survive as ponds". Late in the 13th c. "there was a monastic grange attached to Dale on the site (c) ... It is not mentioned again until the dissolution in 1538 ... Boyha Grange ... is now a farm, with ... buildings in eighteenth century brick." (2) A pond at SK 44403806 and a swampy area 50 m. to the north, neither can be surveyed as extant remains. (3) Boyah Grange. Early 18th century farmhouse. Grade 2. (4)
