The White Row is a row of five estate cottages built around 1820. They are constructed of red brick and rubble walling, which has been whitewashed, with brick dressings. The cottages have a pantile roof featuring one gable and three ridge stacks, and they are two storeys high.

On the north street front, there are five windows. The ground floor arrangement from left to right includes a door, a window, two doors, two windows, and another door. The windows are glazing bar sliding sashes, and the doors are four-panelled, all topped with segment heads. The upper floor has five glazing bar sliding sashes, each with wooden lintels.
