Description

Oak Tree Cottage and Oak Cottage are a pair of houses that were formerly a public house. They date back to the 16th century or earlier, with later additions and a 19th-century facade. The buildings are timber framed, with the ground floor finished in red brick laid in Flemish bond and the first floor weatherboarded. They have a plain tile roof and stand two storeys high on a stone plinth. The roof is hipped to the left with a small gablet and gabled to the right. There are multiple brick stacks, one on the front slope of the roof towards the left end and another as a ridge stack towards the right end. The windows are arranged irregularly, featuring four casements: three with three lights and one with two lights at the right end. There is a ribbed door in a gabled red brick porch leading to Oak Tree Cottage under the left stack, and another ribbed door to the right of the right stack leading to Oak Cottage. The interior has not been inspected. The buildings were previously known as "Two Cottages north of the timber yard at Boughton Green attached to Boughton Mount Farm, owner Mrs. Pickering."
