Back Lane is a typical feature of a village where a back lane was created to run parallel to the main road through the village. At Colsterworth this main road (High Street) used to be the Great North Road until 1926. Now Back Lane is actually wider than High Street. This fine house is clearly earlier than 1851 which was the date when the Window Tax was repealed.
