Description
Oak House is a house dating from the 16th century. It features a timber frame with both small and large panel frames, and plaster infill, along with tile hanging on what was originally the front entrance, now the rear. The roof is plain tiled. The building has two storeys and a garret, set on a stone plinth. There is a jetty on the left return, a half-hipped gable, and a hipped roof to the right with gablets and a cluster of stacks. Each floor has one wooden casement window, and there is a boarded door located in a 20th-century hipped porch to the right. At the rear right, there is a single-storey hipped wing with a stack. The left return features a 20th-century oriel window on the first floor and a canted brick bay on the ground floor. The rear elevation, which was the original entry front, is tile hung and has two wooden casements, along with an additional window to the left in a catslide outshot, and a boarded door to the left with a flat hood supported by brackets.
