Description
Royal Oak House, formerly The Royal Oak Inn, is a house dating from the late 18th century, with an earlier core that may date back to the 17th century. The building has two storeys and features three windows. It is constructed with a timber frame and is plastered. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has end chimneys made of red brick. The windows are small-pane sash windows, with the ground storey featuring tripartite sashes. A notable feature of the house is the fine 18th-century doorway, which has a six-panelled door with fielded panels and an egg-and-dart enriched frame. The doorway is topped with a dentilled pediment supported by carved consoles and Corinthian pilasters.
