Bend of the Lane, also known as the Harlow Luther House, is a historic house at 181 Cedar Avenue in Swansea, Massachusetts. The main block of this 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built c. 1740, and is a well-preserved local example of vernacular Georgian styling. A 1-1/2 story ell was added c. 1850, and a second ell, an old "half-house" (three-bay facade), was grafted onto the front c. 1930.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
