Oak Hall

Oak Hall is a mid-19th century hall house, built by G.E. Pritchett in an imitation Elizabethan timber-framed style. The house is constructed with an exposed timber frame, pargeting, and modern cement rendering. It has weatherboarded gables and a steep roof covered in old red tiles. The building consists of a central block with two cross wings set at right angles to the street. The south elevation features a lean-to porch situated at the angle of the east projecting wing, which has a tiled roof, reused late Gothic tracery in the spandrel, and an Elizabethan bargeboard. Modern casements are present on both floors. The west projection has a cement-rendered ground floor with three narrow lights linked by a hood mould course. The plastered first floor displays bold pargetted armorial motifs. Inserted Jacobean stone carvings are incorporated into the centre of the ground floor's cemented base. Four very tall mullioned brick stacks punctuate the facade.
