Description


SADDLEWORTH KINDER'S LANE SE 00 SW (north-west side) 6/177 Fur Lane Farmhouse - and Cottage - II House and cottage. Said to date from 1645 but largely of mid and late C18 and early C19.

The cottage has stone quoins, shaped eaves gutter brackets and coped gables with kneelers. The ground floor windows have 5 and 2-light double-chamfered cavetto- moulded mullions whereas the upper floors which are of a later date have 7, 3 and a 13-light recessed flat-faced stone mullion windows with king mullions. The rear has a similar workshop window, a 4-light double-chamfered window and shows signs of various periods of construction. C20 garage against gable.

Coped gables with kneelers and gable chimney stacks with oversailing courses. Bulletin of the Saddleworth Historical Society, Vol.1, No.3, 1971.
