TQ 64 NW CAPEL BADSELL ROAD, FIVE OAK GREEN (south side) 1/212 The Supply Stores GV II Shop and post office. C17 origins with various C18 and C19 alterations. Ground floor front is plastered brick, timber framing above is clad with C20 scallop tiles, west gable-end is clad with peg-tile, rear blocks of red brick; brick stacks and chimneyshafts; peg-tile roof. Plan: Shop and post office with living accommodation. The building faces north. Most of the ground floor partitions have been removed from the main block to create an uninterrupted sales area for the shop. It appears to have had a 4-room plan. There is a disused projecting right (east) end stack, a rear lateral stack right of centre and another to rear of the left (west) end room which is still partitioned off from the shop. This last stack also serves rear block behind. 2 parallel rear blocks projecting at right angles behind the left end. The C17 house appears to take up the left 2- or 3-room section of the main block. The right section and the rear blocks were added in the C19. The present premises have probably been made by uniting 2 or 3 former properties. 2 storeys with lean-to outshots across the rear to west of the rear blocks. Exterior: Irregular 4-window front of various C19 and C20 windows. Ground floor right end bay is a C20 flat-roofed extension projecting forward with a large window to right of a plain door. In the centre are 2 C20 canted bay windows with narrow mullions, and at the left end a late C19 sash with margin panes. All the first floor windows are C20 casements with glazing bars. Front doorway is left of centre and contains a C19 top-glazed 6-panel door. Main block roof is half-hipped both ends. Rear blocks include a late C19 sash with margin panes and, at the back, a wide doorway with a segmental arch containing a C19 plank door, the window alongside is protected by iron bars. Both rear block roofs are hipped. Interior: C17 carpentry detail appears to be confined to the western end of the main block. The left end room and former room next to it both have chamfered axial beams, the former with scroll stops, the latter with runout stops. Rest of main block has plain and relatively light carpentry detail. Differences in carpentry are not well-defined on the first floor although some of the timber-framing is exposed. Main block roof however is clearly of 2 phases although both appear to be C19. Most fireplaces are blocked but the eastern rear lateral stack was obviously large. The outshot behind includes a C19 fireplace with bakehouse oven. This is an interesting multi-phase house which would benefit from a more detailed examination than was possible at the time of this survey, preferably when plaster was being replaced and more structural carpentry was exposed.
