Description
The Royal Oak Tavern is a public house dating from the late 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and has a painted finish, topped with a plain-tile roof and brick end stacks. The building has a two-unit plan and is two stories high with a two-window range.
The central entrance features a 20th-century door set within a gabled porch, flanked by canted bay windows that have 16-pane sashes on the front and 4-pane sashes on the sides. The first floor has two-light casement windows. The gables are stone-coped with kneelers. To the right, there is a lower two-story, one-window extension that includes a glazed plank door and a three-light casement window on the ground floor, both with wooden lintels, as well as a two-light dormer window. The end stack of the wing has a stone base.
Inside, the tavern features chamfered spine beams and an open fireplace with a chamfered bressumer.
