Description

Oak Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid to late 17th century, with the possibility of an earlier core. It has a 19th to 20th-century casing. The building features a timber frame with a red brick ground floor and a roughcast upper floor, topped by a pantile roof. A large red brick chimney stack is located towards the right, featuring eight joined shafts arranged in a cruciform plan, while there is a 17th to 18th-century external stack on the left gable end. The farmhouse is two storeys tall with attics, making it unusually tall for its type. The exterior includes four 20th-century casements and three original gabled dormers. On the left gable end, there are two Gothic-style porches from around 1840, with the right one featuring a bay window. These porches are made of yellow stock brick and red brick, both adorned with ogee-headed arches. Inside, the layout consists of three large bays, each with double floor beams, and there is a blocked inglenook. The remains of a newel staircase can be found behind the stack in the attic. Additionally, there are 19th-century rear extensions.
