The Oakeley Arms Hotel

Public house and hotel. 2 storeyed with cellars. Built of coursed local stone including massive stones as lintels; slate roof with overhanging eaves and verges and rectangular stone stacks with capping. The main part is a linear range with 3 advanced wings to front (SW); single storey porch entrances between the advanced wings. A storeyed wing has been built to rear to form an L-shaped plan. The principal range faces the road to SW, each advanced wing ends in a 3-sided bay with a hipped roof and a single window in each side; windows are slightly recessed hornless sashes with slate sills, ground floor windows have 12-panes, 1st floor windows are unequal 9-pane sashes set under the eaves. There is a continuous band across the bays, just below the level of the first floor windows. The building is built on a slight slope with the cellar doors and windows (boarded) only visible in the 2 right hand bays. Between the advanced bays there are single storey, flat roofed porch entrances with moulded parapet coping. Each entrance is in a round headed doorway flanked by similar round headed fixed lights. The walls of the main rectangular range to the rear of the porches appear to be faced with inferior stonework, probably of the original building and have first floor sash windows of 16-panes. The L (NW) return is a 2-window range of unequal sash windows and the opposite return is similarly detailed but with a blocked window to L end and the ground floor is obscured by a single storey, hipped roofed addition with 2, unequal sash windows of 9-panes to centre. The rear wing is a 2-storey, 4-window range with the doorway offset to the L (SW) end of the range. Ground floor windows are 16-pane sashes, 1st floor has unequal sash windows of 12-panes set under the eaves.

The interior was not inspected at the time of the survey (June/July 2003).
