Formerly associated with the nearby Oakfield Cottage, the original portion of this greatly extended house was built between approx 1760-80. The original part is of stone and has two storeys with attics above. Extra wings were added in brick in the early 19th century and in 1935. On old maps, the building is shown as being named Oakfield Lodge.
The wall and entrance is an 18th-century large stone block structure which forms its boundary with the pavement on the road to Turners Hill.
