Red Oaks

Red Oaks is a house dating from around 1830, and named for the American red oak trees in its grounds. It was likely built by the Reverend Charles Dunlop, who served as curate and later vicar of Henfield, and lived there from 1838 to 1851. The house is two storeys high, with three windows facing east and three windows facing south. It features an eaves bracket cornice. The south front has two gables containing attic windows. The roof is slate covered, and the original glazing bars are intact, along with Venetian shutters. A veranda extends from the east front. A porch and one bay are incorporated into the ground floor of the south front.
