Description

The Little Oak Public House is a building that combines two former dwellings, dating from the early 18th century to the early 19th century, with some alterations. It is constructed of Flemish bond brown brick and rendered, topped with grey slate roofs. The building stands three storeys high and features a double-fronted public house on the left side, alongside two one-bay houses on the right.

The original public house has two stone steps leading up to a six-panel door in a timber case, which is topped by a small hood supported by consoles. On either side of the door are replaced leaded windows, likely from the 1900s, each with one pane below the transom and three panes above, set in a moulded surround. The upper storeys have two nearly flush 16-pane sash windows with painted stone sills, a simple cornice, and a flush gable chimney on the left.

The two former houses on the right feature stone steps leading to doors with six fielded panels in timber cases, with the right door being pedimented. Each house has a flush sash window, with glazing bars removed, on each storey. The left house includes a two-course band at the first floor and a second-floor band that overhangs two courses below. Both houses have painted stone sills and cambered brick heads above the ground and first-floor windows, with a chimney located behind the ridge. The rear outshuts and interior do not have any publicly visible features of special interest.
