Saighton Grange originated as a monastic grange. It was later converted into a country house and, as of 2024, the building is used as a school (Abbey Gate College). The only surviving part of the monastic grange is the gatehouse, which is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is one of only two surviving monastic manorial buildings in Cheshire, the other being Ince Manor.[1] The rest of the building is listed at Grade II,[2] as is its chapel.[3]
