Description
The Oake House and The Old Court House is a house that has been divided, dating from the mid-19th century and possibly incorporating earlier elements. The main front is completely covered with West Somerset slates, while the left side features random rubble masonry and the right side has rough cast. The building has a gabled roof with Welsh slates on No 7 and Bridgwater Patents on No 9.
The three-gabled facade shows No 7 on the left and the L-shaped block of No 9 on the right. The house is two storeys high with a layout of two bays, two bays, and two bays. No 7 has irregularly placed windows, with 20th-century casements and a door, along with 19th-century wooden casements on the ground floor, sash windows with glazing bars above, and a glazed door with sidelights to the left of centre. The gables of the casement windows on the first floor of the right-hand return elevation extend above the eaves. There is a gabled porch at the angle of the right-hand return elevation, featuring 19th-century carved bosses. Inside, there is late 19th-century panelling in the front room to the right, which may include some 17th-century woodwork in the overmantle.
