Oak Farmhouse

Oak Farmhouse is a mid-17th century farmhouse, altered in the mid-to-late 19th century. The farmhouse is timber frame, with rendered walls on a painted stone plinth, and has a fishscale tile roof. The building is arranged in an L-shape, with a baffle-entry hall range of two framed bays and a gabled cross wing to the south-east of two framed bays. The farmhouse has two storeys and a gable-lit attic, with a basement to the right. A large brick ridge stack, with four diagonally-set square shafts, is located just off-centre to the left. The front of the farmhouse has three windows, featuring 20th-century metal casements with one, two, and three lights. A central gabled porch has a segmental-headed, half-glazed door. The left-hand return front has two windows to each floor, with two- and three-light casements. The right-hand gable end has a casement to each floor and two basement openings. A late 19th-century brick addition is located at the rear. The interior includes chamfered spine beams, cased in a ground-floor room on the left. A large open fireplace is in the right-hand ground-floor room, with a chamfered wooden lintel and two small cupboards flanking a 20th-century fireplace. The left-hand ground-floor room has 17th-century panelling dated 1664, and a late 17th-century panelled door.
