The Laines, Plumpton
This home was once the village rectory and is
Grade II listed and of architectural and historic
interest. The Laines dates back to the 18th
century and was extended in the 19th century.
The house is constructed of classic knapped flint
walls under a hipped tiled roof and has a Gothic
style orangery that was added in the 1970s. It is
only the second time in 63 years the property has
been on the market and it was the family home
of the Duchess of Cornwall.
