What does GRANGE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A country house with its farm buildings, especially an outlying farm once belonging to a monastery or manor, or, in North America, a local association of farmers.
In older British usage, a grange named an isolated farmhouse together with its barns and storage buildings, often one that supplied grain and other produce to a monastery or feudal estate at a distance from the main household. The word survives today mostly in place names and in descriptions of old rural properties, evoking a quiet, self-contained farm set apart from a village. In the United States, Grange also names a very different institution, the National Grange, a farmers' association founded in 1867 to represent agricultural interests and bring farmers together for social and political purposes. Local Grange halls, built by this organization, still host community meetings in many rural American towns.
How GRANGE is used
Used both for old-fashioned farmhouses in British writing and, capitalized, for the American farmers' association and its local halls.
