Dane Farm

Dane Farm is a farmhouse dating from the 16th century, which was restored in the late 20th century. Originally timber framed, the ground floor features roughly coursed galleted sandstone, while the first floor has 20th-century timber framing with brick infilling in stretcher bond. The right gable end is weather-boarded, and the roof is covered with plain tiles. The building consists of three timber-framed bays, with indications of a single or possibly two-bay open hall, and storeyed end bays to the left and a non-extant bay to the right. It has two storeys and a stone plinth topped with brick. The studding is broadly spaced, with a tension brace at each end. The hipped roof includes gablets, and there is a brick ridge stack located towards the right end of the right hall bay. The windows are irregularly arranged, featuring three horizontally-sliding sashes: one two-light window at each end and one three-light window in the center, with three similar ground-floor windows. A half-glazed door is situated in a small gabled timber-framed porch beneath the stack.

To the right, there is a short two-storey rear wing constructed of red and grey brick in Flemish bond, also with a hipped plain tile roof. To the left, a two-storey rear wing replaces a former lean-to. Inside, there is a moulded right end-of-hall beam in the right end of the central bay, likely relocated from further right after the 17th century. The plain left end-of-hall beam is morticed for a central pair of doorheads and has a tension-braced first-floor partition above. The left end room features broad axial joists, while a cambered beam is found at the right end of the central bay, along with an axial beam in the central bay. The stack includes a brick fireplace with a bressumer on the left and a stone face on the right.
