Oak Farmhouse

Oak Farmhouse is a farmhouse consisting of two main sections. To the right is an early 15th-century former open hall, with the adjoining service cell likely enlarged or rebuilt in the 16th century. This section was raised and re-roofed around 1800. The left section features a mid-16th-century parlour that remains largely unaltered. The building is timber framed and plastered, designed to imitate ashlar, and has a roof made of glazed black pantiles. It is two storeys tall, with an attic floor in the parlour block that is currently disused. The windows are scattered, primarily consisting of casements, with some older examples, including one sash window on the first floor. There is a mid-20th-century door leading into the hall range. The parlour block contains an integral stack located at the junction with the hall, featuring an oblong shaft with a moulded base, as well as a later stack against the right gable end.

Inside, there is a cambered tie beam over the former open hall, although the braces to it are not visible. This tie beam supports a square crown-post with a moulded base, while the upper part is concealed. Some plain, well-finished studding is exposed in the lower gable wall of the hall. In the front wall, there is half of a two-centre arched cross-entry doorway. A 16th-century inserted floor features a moulded bridging beam, supported at one end by an unusual hollow-moulded curved brace that springs from floor level; the other end of the bridging beam is concealed. The girding beams at each end of this room are also moulded, and the joists are concealed. The parlour has an axial bridging beam with multiform moulding and moulded joists. The chamber above has exposed studs with curved braces and substantial plain joists that are almost square in section. There are two doorways with four-centred arches, one in the hall featuring leaf-carved spandrels, along with several good 16th-century doors. The parlour has a queen-post roof, while the later roof over the hall reuses many sooted medieval rafters at a shallower pitch.
