Higher Lanes Bank Farmhouse

A large T-shaped farmhouse with 1½-storey main range and higher 2½-storey wing, of hand-moulded brick with tile roof and brick stacks. Openings have brick segmental heads, and mainly wooden casement windows or small-pane iron-frame windows incorporating opening lights. The entrance faces S, away from the yard. At the L end of the main range is an open lean-to porch on a dwarf wall and timber post, with half-glazed panel door. To its R are 3-light and 2-light casement windows. A 2-light window is above the entrance and in the centre is a 2-light casement window to a timber-framed gabled dormer. The gable end of the wing projects slightly forward on the L side of the main range. It has 3-light casement windows, a similar 2-light attic window, above which is a stone tablet inscribed 'PWG 1876'.

In the L side wall of the wing are small-pane iron-frame windows in both storeys to the centre and L side, a 2-light casement window lower R and a central 2-light window in a timber-framed dormer. The R gable end of the main house also has small iron-frame windows, 2 in the attic and a window lower L. Behind the main house is a lean-to under a corrugated-iron roof, which has a boarded door and overlight at each end and a 3-light central window. Three small windows are above the lean-to, under the eaves of the main house. The rear gable end of the wing has small-pane iron-frame windows lower L and upper R, and in the attic 2 later steel-framed casement windows in original openings.
