Oaklands

Oaklands is a building from the early to mid-19th century, constructed of ashlar stone with a low-pitched hipped roof made of Welsh slate and featuring two ridge chimneys. It is designed in a classical style and stands three storeys high with four windows, giving the impression that it was originally a six-bay design, from which two bays have been lost or were never built. The ground floor is banded rusticated, with fluted Ionic pilasters at the ends and center that rest on a first-floor band, supporting an entablature and blocking course. The upper floors contain sash windows with glazing bars, although some have been replaced. The ground floor features late 19th-century square bay windows and an off-centre door flanked by sidelights, a patterned fanlight above, and a flat hood supported by cast iron brackets. The right side, which faces the garden, is rendered and has only two windows. There is a two-storey extension on the left (north) side, built with similar materials and windows, but it includes modern garage doors.
