Oak Vale, With Boundary Wall, 15 Metres South East

Oak Vale is a detached house located 15 metres southeast of its boundary wall, with Tudor origins and dating from the early 19th century. The building is constructed from locally sourced stone that has been cut and squared, featuring ashlar dressings and a stone slate roof with simple gables. It has three storeys and three bays, with rusticated ashlar quoins. The ground and first floors have 16-pane sash windows, while the second floor has 12-pane sash windows, all set flush and topped with five-stone voussoired flat heads. The third bay includes a six flush-panel door situated in a semi-circular arched recess, complemented by a Regency style fanlight.

To the east, there is a lower two-storey extension made of coursed rubble, also with a stone slate roof and a brick stack. This extension features a double 18-pane sash window on the lower bay and plain casement windows of three and two lights on the upper bays. The interior has not been seen.

The front boundary wall stands about one metre high, constructed from squared stone with simple coping. It includes square piers with plain tops and ball finials at the west end, along with two gateways. To the southeast, opposite the door, there are wrought iron gates with barbed spearheads on the lower and top rail, both of which are concave curved. This boundary wall significantly contributes to the setting of the house, which is located on the edge of the settlement. The house is said to be part of a Tudor fare settlement, but a major portion was rebuilt in 1815 using materials from Stalbridge House, as noted by Wakeford in "A History of Henstridge" from 1953.
