Description

Back Lane Farmhouse is a 17th-century house constructed with a plastered timber frame. It features a long range and a thatched roof with gabled ends, rising to two storeys. The building includes 18th and 19th-century casement windows, along with two eyebrow dormers. Early 19th-century panelled and plank doors are present, and there is an off-centre brick chimney stack located at the south end. Additionally, there is a later single-storey plastered wing on the north end, which has an external brick stack.
