Description

No. 37 Barn Lane is a house dating from the late 17th century, which incorporates an earlier timber-framed structure, with 19th-century additions and alterations. The building features brick cladding over timber framing and has a stone slate gable-end roof. The layout includes a hall and a west wing, with a rear outshut that was rebuilt in the 19th century but contains a late 17th-century staircase. The wing is timber framed with jowelled posts and was brick clad in the late 17th century, while the hall range appears to be entirely from the late 17th century. A rear service wing was added in the later 19th century.

The house is two storeys high. The roadstone elevation has two first-floor windows with brick window arches and 12-pane Yorkshire sashes, along with two small ground-floor windows and an entrance into the outshut. The service wing is set back and has outside stairs leading to the upper floor. The south elevation features the end wall of the cross wing to the west, which has one 19th-century casement window on each floor. The position of the southeast jowelled post is visible where the brickwork is disturbed. The hall range also has one 19th-century casement window on each floor, while the rear (west) side has 19th-century casement windows and a 20th-century chimney stack.

Inside, the wing has jowelled corner posts, with one clearly visible and the other concealed, and a side purlin roof. The hall range features a ceiling beam that is chamfered, along with hollow step stairs. A change in ceiling level next to the cross-wing wall may indicate the position of a former smoke bay. At the rear, there is a late 19th-century dog-leg staircase with shaped pendants and caps on the newels, and stick balusters that have been renewed.
