Description
Oak Apple Cottage is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th to early 17th century, with alterations made in the mid-20th century. The exterior is roughcast over rubble, topped with a double Roman tiled roof. There is a large lateral stack to the right of the entrance and an external stone stack on the left gable end, which has an extended rear section featuring a slate-roofed bread oven projection that faces the facade. The building is L-shaped and likely consists of three cells and a cross passage, with a full-height projection to the right of the lateral stack and a wing at the rear.
It is one and a half storeys tall with two bays on the front and one on the side. Most of the windows are 20th-century wooden casements. There is a two-light dormer casement on the left, which rises from below the eaves, and a two-light 19th-century leaded iron casement above the entrance. To the right of the stack in the projection, another two-light casement rises from below the eaves, while the end bay is unlit on the upper storey. On the ground floor, there is a three-light casement to the left of the entrance, another in the projection next to the stack with a tiny glazed opening between, possibly for ventilation of a curing chamber, and a further two-light casement beyond. The entrance features a plank door set in a chamfered peaked door frame. The left side of the building has a long return. The interior has not been seen.
