Description
Fox Lane Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1691 and restored in the 20th century with some additions. It is constructed from coursed rubble sandstone with ashlar dressings, featuring quoins, coped gables with moulded kneelers, and a central ridge stack that has been rebuilt in 20th-century brick. The roof is stone slated. The building has two storeys and attics, with five bays and a single-storey addition at the west end.
The south elevation includes four 2-light recessed chamfered mullioned windows and a single light window with a moulded surround, all situated beneath a continuous drip mould that steps up to a hoodmould above a central doorway. This doorway has a quoined surround and a massive moulded lintel inscribed with "M RS 1691." The door itself is panelled, with the upper two panels glazed. On the first floor, there are four 2-light openings and one central single light opening, all dating from the 17th century; the 2-light openings are mullioned. The attic features two single light openings in plain surrounds. The single-storey extension has 20th-century replacement 2-light and single light openings that match the 17th-century work. The date of 1691 appears late for the style and plan of this house in the area.
