Description
The Post Office and Oak House is a house with a shop, dated 1721 as indicated on the carved doorhead, with 19th-century alterations. It features a timber-frame structure with brick infill and a plain tile roof, along with an axial brick stack. The building has a baffle entry and is one storey high with an attic that is illuminated by three 19th-century gabled dormers.
The structure consists of three bays, with the two bays on the right having two windows flanking the entrance to the house. These windows are four-pane sashes. There is a 19th-century tiled wooden canopy over the entrance, which has a four-panelled 19th-century door. The left bay includes a door and a 19th-century canted bay window, with a dated door head above a blocked entrance in between. The framing includes straight tension braces, and the left gable roof truss has five queen struts with V struts at the apex and trenched purlins. The wall panels are rectangular and three high to the wall-plate, resting on a low rubble plinth.
