Oakhanger Barn

Oakhanger Barn is a detached house, dating from the mid-17th century with a later 17th-century enlargement to the northwest end. It is constructed of dressed limestone with a tiled roof, previously thatched, and brick stacks. A baffle entry was introduced in the late 17th century when the front door was moved from the centre of the original building to the right-hand side. The house has a two-storey, five-window front. A gabled porch from the 20th century is located to the right of the centre, with a four-light and a three-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement window to the right, and a three-light ovolo-mullioned casement window. A blocked doorway and a 20th-century mullioned casement window are present to the left. The first floor has a three-light 20th-century mullioned casement window, a three-light and a two-light ovolo-mullioned casement window to the left of the straight joint, and two 20th-century mullioned casements to the right. The eaves are raised. The right return side features a single-light casement to the ground floor, a diamond-leaded casement to the attic, and a two-light casement to the first floor. The left return side has a two-light 20th-century casement to the first floor. The rear of the house includes three 20th-century steel casement windows, French windows, a planked door, and a glazed door with a recessed chamfered casement window, which formerly lit the stairs, to the left. The interior of the late 17th-century section features chamfered beams with stepped stops and an open fireplace with a cambered chamfered lintel on stone jambs. The earlier 17th-century section has chamfered beams with scrolled stops and a blocked fireplace. Alterations in the 1950s included moving the staircase to its current position within the north stack and the removal of the thatch.
