Description
Oaklands Farm House is a detached farmhouse with origins dating back to the 17th century, although it has been significantly modified over time. The building is constructed of ham stone that has been cut and squared, with ashlar dressings. It features a double Roman clay tiled roof set between stepped coped gables, along with brick and rendered chimney stacks. The farmhouse is two storeys high and consists of seven bays.
The windows are plain casements with three lights, and those in the ground floor bays five and seven are framed in ashlar surrounds. Bay two has a 20th-century stone and tiled porch with a 20th-century door set in a deep recess. Bay six features a projecting two-storey gabled porch, which is open at the lower part and supported by rudimentary Doric columns without pilasters. Above this porch is a window with one light, four lights, and one light, designed with hollow-chamfered mullions in chamfered recesses, complete with a label above.
Attached to the west gable is a long agricultural building that has a corrugated iron roof. The farmhouse is the last remaining house from the hamlet of Craft, which was gradually incorporated into Hinton Park and cleared over time. It was referred to as Browns Farm by 1819 and later known as Croft Farm.
