Description
An outstanding Grade II Listed Victorian gentleman's residence of superb proportions, nestling in beautifully maintained grounds of just over one and half acres. Oakley is an outstanding example of Victorian Gothic revival architecture sympathetic to its medieval origins. Standing on land originally acquired from Lord Stamford, Oakley it was commissioned by Henry Theodore Gaddum, a wealthy cotton and silk merchant of his time, and H T Gaddum's initials are still carved in the Southerly elevation. Completed in 1869, the house sits under a hand-finished Welsh slate roof, its sandstone elevations bear all the quintessential hallmarks of the skilled stonemasons of this period. Its façade, which reaches 30 metres in parts, is richly encrusted in leaf ornamentation, finials and animated gargoyles. The clock tower is surmounted with Tudor domes, whilst small busts of King Arthur and Guinevere adorn one of the rear doorways.Material Information
