Great Oak Cottage And Great Oak Farm

Great Oak Cottage and Great Oak Farm is a farmhouse that dates from the mid-17th century, with later additions and alterations from the late 18th and 19th centuries. The building is timber framed with rendered infill, and features rubble and Flemish bond brick additions topped with a stone slate roof. It stands two storeys high.

The entrance front includes a timber framed gabled wing on the left, which has a projecting plinth and small framing on the ground floor, featuring a three-light 19th-century casement window. The first floor jetties out and has a moulded bressumer with a central 20th-century five-light window set in small-framed walling. The gable of this wing has a central king post and chevron strutting. The right-hand return of the gabled wing displays small framing on both floors, with angle braces on the right and left. There is a three-light window on the ground floor with a 20th-century porch to the right, and a blocked seven-light first floor window with an ovolo-moulded timber frame.

To the right of this wing is an 18th and 19th-century addition with scattered windows. The left-hand return of the wing features coursed rubble with ashlar quoins on the right, and two bays with a door to the left and a projecting section. The rear of the building is constructed from Flemish bond brick and rubble, with a gable on the right that has three and two-light ground floor windows, along with a 20th-century first floor window. To the left is a two-bay section made of brick with a door on the left and a three-light cambered-headed window to the right. The first floor has two and three-light cambered-headed casements, and to the left is a stone and brick three-light ground floor window with a cambered head, accompanied by a three-light window above.
