Archaeological excavation undertaken at the site of the former Lane Head Farm (North), near Barnsley, South Yorkshire. The excavation also found no physical evidence for the 17th century timber frame recorded in the main farm building during a previous building survey. The excavation found only limited structural and dating evidence associated with the demolished 18th to 20th century farm buildings. Nevertheless, it indicated that the 17th century timber-framed barn had been encased in stone and converted for domestic use in the late 18th to 19th centuries, with the stone barn adjoining the eastern end of the farmhouse being built at the same time.
