Baldwin’s Moor is not in the manorial surveys of 1601-18, and the old farmhouse appears to have originated in the early or mid C17. It is sandwiched between the present houses called Baldwin’s Moor and The Grange was built in the late C18 or early C19 as the new Baldwin’s Moor Farmhouse. In 1840 it was owned by Arthur Williams and occupied by F T Biddulph. The stable block at the rear (W) has recently been enlarged and converted to a house and separated under the name Baldwin’s Moor.
