'irregularly?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'hazy grey lady mostly' is the wordplay.
'hazy grey' becomes 'ragged' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'lady' becomes 'Lyn'.
'mostly' means to remove the last letter (most but not all of the word).
'lyn' with its final letter removed is 'ly'.
'ragged'+'ly'='RAGGEDLY'

'seen around front of grange' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for raggedly that I've seen is " Adverb for lacking smoothness or uniformity - in torn way".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
