Oakhurst House, Victorian building in Ambergate, England
The exterior structure of Oakhurst House displays stone construction and multiple windows across its facade, reflecting traditional English architectural elements.
Francis Hurt commissioned the construction of Oakhurst House in 1848 behind his iron forge, marking the beginning of industrial development in Ambergate.
The Johnson family, who owned the house, contributed to local development by funding the construction of St. Anne's Church in Ambergate.
The building transformed from a single residence into twelve separate apartments after World War II, though it currently stands unused.
The property includes stone stables added by Midland Railway's architect Charles Trubshaw when the company acquired the house in 1888.
