Farmhouse at Oaks Cross Farm

The farmhouse at Oaks Cross Farm is a house that dates back to the 16th century or earlier, featuring a rear wing and a front wing that was heightened in the 17th century, reusing smoke-blackened rafters. A single-storey kitchen was added to the north end of the rear wing, and the building underwent renovations in the 19th century. Small front dormers were added around 1935. The structure is timber-framed and plastered, with panelled pargetting and steep old red tile roofs. There is also a corrugated asbestos lean-to roof covering the dairy in the northwest corner.

This T-plan house has two storeys and faces south. The rear wing consists of a two-bay 16th-century range with an inserted floor supported by a chamfered axial beam, and it features tension bracing in its close-studded north end wall. The single-storey kitchen to the north has one bay and an internal north gable chimney. The south range is a two-cell building with a central chimney plan, and a winding stair is located behind the chimney. The floor is supported by two cross beams in each half, and a deep cupboard may occupy the site of a central lobby entry. Currently, there are separate entrances into each room from the outside.

On the south front, there are two windows on each floor, featuring two-light flush mullioned windows with small paned casements. Each upper window has a small two-light casement window in a gabled dormer at the eaves to provide additional light. A three-light diamond-mullioned window head was discovered during alterations on the first floor near the east end. The large central chimney is made of red brick and has four diagonal flues arranged in a saltire fashion, with corbelled caps.

A four-panel flush-beaded door is located in a weatherboarded tiled porch near the left-hand corner, while a glazed door in an 18th-century moulded frame with a flat hood on brackets is found on the east gable of the front block. The tiled roofs step down towards the rear, and there is a two-storey canted bay window on the west gable. The roofs feature clasped-purlins and inclined queen-post trusses in the rear wing, which have jowled heads to the posts. Inside, there is a wide stone 18th-century fire surround in the west room and two-panel doors on the first floor.
