The Oak House is a timber framed building dating from the early sixteenth century that is located in West Bromwich, England.

The last John Turton advised William Whyley to fell the trees, and in 1768 many were used to make lock-gates for the Birmingham Canal, which was then being built through West Bromwich.

He purchased the Oak House with the intention of making it his private residence, but resolved to present it to the town as a museum.

The leading architects in West Bromwich, Messrs. Wood and Kendrick, were employed with the task of restoring the house.

Skilled craftsmanship ensured the outstanding quality of the restoration and the museum was formally opened on 25 July 1898; gardens and a bowling green were also laid out.
