Farleton is a hamlet in the civil parish of Hornby-with-Farleton, in the Lancaster district, in the county of Lancashire, England.
Farleton lies in the north of the county just to the south of the main A683 road, some 8½ miles northeast of Lancaster.
The Toll House, a Grade II listed building was, in the 1920s, a garage.
[8] In about 1922, John Willacy who then owned the garage on the main road at Farleton painted a white line to alert drivers to the bend after several accidents.
This may be the earliest recorded road surface marking, although there is reportedly a Canadian claim contesting this.
