Description
Lane House is a house dating from the mid to late 18th century, with later additions. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features a slate roof with brick end stacks. The building is designed in an L-plan, with a later addition to the rear wing and a re-entrant wing. It has three storeys and a three-window range. The ground floor includes a sill band and a wooden cornice at the top. The central entrance is round-headed and features a doorcase with fluted pilasters, an open pediment, and a fanlight above a six-fielded-panel door. To the left end of the ground floor, there is a bow window with an 8:12:8-pane tripartite sash, pilaster strips, and a bracketed cornice. The other windows have rubbed brick flat arches over twelve-pane horned sashes, while the second floor has six-pane sashes. The right return of the house has a large sixteen-pane sash above a blocked large segmental-headed opening, and there is a 20th-century single-storey addition to the rear. The interior has not been inspected.
