Description

5 and 7 Oakfield Road are a pair of attached houses built around 1845, possibly designed by R.S. Pope. They are constructed from limestone ashlar and feature party wall stacks with a slate hipped roof. The houses have a double-depth plan and are designed in a Neoclassical style, each consisting of three storeys, a basement, and an attic, with a two-window range.

The front facade is composed, with the center section projecting forward and supported by side brackets at the attic level. The ground floor is banded and enhanced by giant channelled pilasters with coved capitals, topped with an entablature, cornice, and parapet. There are single-storey side entrance porches, with No. 7 having a two-storey porch, both featuring pilasters and an entablature, along with double three-panel doors.

The windows are tripartite with architraves and moulded cills. The first-floor features stone balconies with 6/6-pane sashes flanked by 2/2-pane sashes, while the smaller second-floor windows have 4/4-pane sashes flanked by 2/2-pane sashes. The attic has 3/3-pane sashes set in shallow recesses. The sides of the houses include semicircular-arched stair lights. The interior has not been inspected but is noted to have side dogleg stairs, panelled doors and shutters, and cornices.
