Description
Lane House is a house dating from the early to mid 17th century, constructed from gritstone rubble with a graduated stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and is arranged in a two by one bay configuration, featuring quoins. On the far right, there is a half-glazed four-panel door, with the upper half boarded up, set in a chamfered quoined surround that has a slightly cambered head under a square chamfer. The ground floor has two four-light windows, which were restored in the 20th century and are both shuttered over with corrugated iron. The first floor includes a two-light and a three-light window. Corniced stacks are located at the ends of the house.
At the rear, there are three small chamfered windows, two of which were inserted in the 19th century. The interior was not inspected in detail during the resurvey, but the right gable end was noted to have a heck post inside the entrance, which supports a cross beam that in turn supports the ends of two longitudinal ceiling beams. A very rare survival of a timber-framed fireplace opening is present, predating the large stone-arched fireplaces typical of the area. Inside this large opening, there is a plain fireplace from the 18th century.
