Description

Tanglewood is a 16th-century house located in Upper Oakley. It features a timber-framed and plastered structure with a thatched roof, standing two storeys high with an attic. The house has a three-cell layout and three windows, which are primarily 19th-century small-paned casements. There is a disused 19th-century half-glazed door and bracketed drip boards above the ground floor openings. An internal stack has two square shafts set diamondwise. Inside, there is exposed timbering and signs of diamond-mullioned windows. The hall has plain joists, and the partition between the hall and the service end includes one four-centre arched doorhead and evidence of a second. The post between these doorways is re-used and features trail carving.
