Description
The Worth Training Centre is an 18th-century house dating from around 1760 to 1780, with later extensions from the early 19th century and around 1935. It is a two-storey building with attics, faced in stone and oriented to the west. The roof is mansarded, covered with Welsh slates, and features a stone cornice. The original structure has three windows. In the early 19th century, the building was extended northward at the same height, using stucco-faced brick, and includes a cornice and a two-storey bay at the north end. The original block was further extended southward with a two-storey wing made of cement-faced brick, which has four windows and dates from around 1935. All windows are fitted with wooden glazing bars. There is a niche with a statue of the Virgin and Child at the south end of the building. To the southeast of the main block, there are 19th-century offices. Inside the 18th-century section, there is a staircase with a mahogany handrail. On the Tithe Map, the building was identified as Oakfield Lodge.
