The hamlet of Wilderley is noted in the Norman Domesday book of 1085 and was actually one of the larger settlements in Shropshire at that time; comprising 9 dwellings. Wilderley hasn't expanded from that time. Lane Farm itself, dates from the mid-1600's, erected around the time of the English Civil War. Although now a lifestyle farm, it was originally part of a 2,000 acre, 10 farm, farming estate. The farmhouse remains with 10 acres with almost half an acre set as gardens. The farm still carries livestock, having a pedigree flock of Lleyn sheep. Easter is an excellent time to see the fields full of newly born lambs.

The home has been extended at regular intervals to form what is today, a sprawling 5 bedroom house. Up until 1950's, the house was thatched with exposed beams on the exterior walls. The house remains a character property, with oak beamed ceilings throughout, ideal for a relaxing holiday in an area that is rich in scenery and history, yet in a location that is close to all the area main and market towns.

Lane Farm has been our family home since 1998 when we moved to the area from Berkshire. The farm until the late 1980's was a milking and pig farm. We introduced our pedigree flock of sheep in 1999.
