Oak House, The Court House And The Old School House

This is a former school, now comprising two houses and a council chamber, dating from 1829 and likely designed by William Knight. The building is constructed of sandstone ashlar, brick, and painted brick, with a tile roof.

The central block features a prominent full-height Gothick portico with an arcade of three two-centred arch openings, divided by stepped buttresses and octagonal corner turrets topped with crenellations. A plain parapet exists between the arches, featuring a raised central section displaying a shield and the date 1620, representing the foundation date. Behind the arcade is a first-floor platform, accessible by staircases on either side. A wide Tudor arch provides central entrance to the ground floor. The wall behind the portico on the first floor has two three-light windows with cinquefoiled lights, flanking a central entrance with a two-centred head. A clock sits above this central entrance.

To the left of the central block is Oak House, built of painted brick with a stone-coped parapet and moulded cornice. It has three windows: two three-light windows with square heads and labels are flanked by a central quatrefoil window. The ground floor central entrance is covered by a flat canopy with cast iron decoration, featuring a three-pane overlight and a six-panelled door. The Old School House, to the right, mirrors the design of Oak House, but is constructed of unpainted brick.

The building has undergone alterations in the late 20th century.
