Description

Oakfield Cottage is a small rectangular house dating from the 19th century. The front wall is made of brick, while the rest of the structure is built from squared blocks of local green stone, topped with a slate roof that features flat eaves and a parapet on the left end, which includes a short stone chimney. The house has two storeys, with the front brick wall displaying a raised eaves course and two stone-framed 9-pane hornless sash windows on each floor; the upper windows are smaller.

There is a later 20th-century gabled brick addition on the right side, positioned between the house and the cell-block wall of a former gaol. The rear elevation's stonework connects to the northwest end of this former cell block wall. The front has a single central doorway with an ashlar head and a heavy gaol door. Above this door, there is a modern inserted window, along with two additional modern windows inserted in the wall to the left.

Inside, the ground floor room, which was originally two separate rooms, features the heavy gaol door that was once external but is now part of the new addition, with the lock positioned on the outside. There is a fireplace at the opposite end of the room and narrow winding stairs located in the northeast corner.
