On the right is Oxford House at numbers 17 & 19, which is a grade II listed building dating from the 14th century, late 15th and 18th centuries. It was altered in the early 19th century. It is timber framed clad with red brick in Flemish bond, with handmade red plain tiles on the roof http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-115918-oxford-house-earls-colne-essex This view shows that the walls have been painted white. It appears from this http://www.useyourlocal.com/pubs/essex/colchester/earls-colne/oxford-house/q/ref-2082/ that it was a public house, which has since closed.
