Oakwood

Oakwood is a mid-19th century building located on Hungerford Road in Edgerton. It is constructed from hammer-dressed stone with ashlar dressings and features a hipped slate roof. The building has two storeys and includes a bracketed eaves cornice and string courses. The façade displays four ranges of round-arched sash windows, with paired windows on the first floor. These windows are adorned with foliage-capitalled colonnettes, moulded voussoirs, and keystones. The ground floor windows have moulded surrounds and raised frames, complemented by dentilled and modillioned cornices, foliage panels, and spandrels.

The two left-hand bays of the building project forward. There is a porch located in the re-entrant angle, supported by nine pink granite columns on raised bases, which are connected by an openwork balustrade. The porch features moulded voussoirs and elaborately carved keystones, along with a dentilled and modillioned cornice. The entrance has four steps leading up, flanked by quadrant-shaped retaining walls that carry gadrooned and sculpted urns. The door consists of four moulded panels and is topped by a semi-circular fanlight, with a moulded surround featuring colonnettes with foliage capitals.

The north front is similar, with three ranges of windows and a canted ground floor bay on the right side. This section also has a panelled plinth, piers with foliage capitals, an entablature, and a parapet similar to the porch. Inside, the building boasts a full-height top-lit hall featuring a bracketed cornice, some plaster decoration, a patterned floor made of brightly coloured tiles, and a staircase with elaborate newels and bulbous balusters decorated with foliage stems. One of the rooms contains a particularly fine plaster ceiling.
