50, Oxford Street

No. 50 Oxford Street is a house dating from the early 17th century, with possible earlier origins, that was refronted in the mid-18th century. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and features a gabled concrete tile roof, with Welsh slates on the rear and brick end stacks. The building has an L-plan with a rear right range and stands two storeys high with an attic, presenting a symmetrical three-window facade. The entrance features flat stone arches over a mid to late 18th-century six-panelled door, which has two glazed panels, and over horned six-pane sash windows. Hipped roof dormers are also present.

At the rear, there is a two-storey bay to the left that contains two notable 17th-century studded doors, one of which is set in an early 17th-century moulded wood architrave, along with a finely carved wood lintel above an early 17th-century ovolo-moulded wood-mullioned two-light window. The early 17th-century rear right wing has a similar lintel over a blocked opening and a roll-stopped and carved timber lintel above a 17th-century five-light wood-mullioned window with leaded lights. A late 17th-century wing at the rear features stop-chamfered timber lintels and a gabled concrete tile roof.

Inside, the central passage retains its original position and has a stone flag floor, with early 19th-century two-panelled doors set in moulded wood architraves. The winder stairs, which lead to the attic, feature 17th-century splat balusters at the top. The room to the left, the passage, and the rear right room have bar-stopped beams, while the room to the right has late 16th-century hollow-chamfered beams and an early 17th-century ovolo-moulded doorframe leading to the rear. On the first floor, there are bar-stopped chamfered beams, a mid-18th-century fireplace, and panelled doors in the front room. A 17th-century stop-chamfered doorframe with a plank door leads to the rear wing, which has a bar-stopped chamfered beam. The attic features a collar-truss roof with butt purlins, and at the rear, there is a 17th-century plank door and truss with stop-chamfered principles and mortices from a removed collar. This house is a well-preserved example of early 17th-century architecture, showcasing many original features.
