Description
White Oak Farmhouse is a house, possibly dating from the 19th century, but incorporating masonry from the mid- to late 17th century. It is constructed of ashlar gritstone with a blue slate roof. The house has two storeys and two bays. A 20th-century part-glazed door sits centrally, with an overlight beneath a lintel shaped like a shallow Tudor arch, decorated with coil patterns in the spandrels. Recessed-chamfered mullioned windows are present throughout; the ground floor windows have five lights each, while the upper floor windows have three stepped lights, all with hoodmoulds. The roof has gable copings, shaped kneelers with cushions for ball finials, and banded end stacks.
On the left return, a board door is set to the right within a quoined surround featuring a four-centred arched opening. A watercolour, owned by the current occupant, depicts a 17th-century house with three gables - one resembling the porch at Throstle Nest. The window forms in the watercolour are similar to those of the present house, suggesting a substantial rebuilding occurred.
