Description
Park Lane Farmhouse is a 17th-century house located in Langham. It features a timber-frame structure that is plastered and consists of three bays along with a two-storey long range. The house has two red brick chimney stacks, one located to the left of center and the other at the right end, which is inset into the gable. The roof is peg-tiled, ridged, and gabled, with an extension on the right side that is a single-storey building made of painted brick. There is a modern gabled porch at the entrance, and the first and ground storeys have two pairs of small-paned hornless sash windows that are irregularly spaced. The brick extension includes a door with six fielded panels and two pairs of sash windows.
