Description
Lane Foot Farmhouse and Cottage are a 17th-century farmhouse with a later 18th-century facade. The building is constructed from watershot masonry with stone dressings and a stone slate roof. The farmhouse is two storeys high and double-fronted. The central entrance features a plain surround and a six-panel door. The windows are generally two-light designs with flat-faced mullions. The right-hand upper-floor window has a moulded surround and recessed flat-faced mullion, and all windows have sashes and fixed lights. A slate dripstone is above the ground-floor window on the right-hand side. A gable-end stack is located on the right-hand side. A cottage adjoins the farmhouse to the left, being two storeys and one bay wide. The right-hand entrance to the cottage has a plain surround and a plank door. A single two-light flat-faced mullioned window is present on each storey of the cottage. A ridge stack is on the right-hand side. The rear of the farmhouse features a two-light cavetto mullioned chamfered window on both floors, along with a blocked single-light round-headed window on the upper floor, situated behind the cottage.
