What Is A Toll House Or Turnpike - Named "Bar Cottage", standing about half way up on Rowley Lane just after the mini roundabout (going up) on the right hand side in the village of Lepton, slightly south and east of Huddersfield itself. Is recognisable as a former toll-house due to the design of the building which stands further out into the road than neighbouring buildings, and it has windows allowing traffic approaching from both directions to be seen in readiness to collect a fee or toll from them for using the road.

Rowley Lane was once part of the Wakefield-Austerlands Turnpike, a road constructed circa 1759 from Wakefield through Huddersfield to the county boundary at Austerlands (on the present A62) where it connected with the turnpike from Manchester through Oldham.
