Description

Oak House is an 18th-century house built of chequered brick with a plain tiled roof. It has two storeys, a basement, and a garret, all set on a plinth featuring a brick dentilled cornice that supports a hipped roof with a central chimney stack. The building has a regular arrangement of windows, with three wooden casements on the first floor and two on the ground floor, both with segmental heads. The entrance features a central two-panelled door topped by a flat hood supported on consoles.
