43, Platt Lane

No. 43 Platt Lane is a house with an adjoining barn that has been incorporated into the house. The date "TS ES 1726" (for Thomas and Elizabeth Shaw) is inscribed on the door lintel. The building is constructed of coursed squared rubble and has a slate roof. It features a 2-unit plan with two storeys, a lean-to at the rear, and a barn to the left. The building has quoins, with a door to the left that has a chamfered dressed surround, and a 20th-century door and porch to the right. The ground floor has one, two, four, and three-light double-chamfered cavetto-moulded mullion windows, although the three-light window has had its mullions removed. The first floor has two, five, and four-light windows, similar in style, but the central window's mullions have been replaced with flat-faced ones. The barn, which is slightly older, features a cart entry with a stone lintel, a chamfered shippon door to the right, an outshut to the left, and 20th-century windows inserted on the first floor. The rear of the building has a blocked barn door, four two-light windows, and a blocked taking-in door.
