Description

The White House is a farmhouse dating from the mid-to-late 18th century, with later alterations and additions. It is constructed of rendered brick, with a concrete pantile roof. The building is L-shaped, comprising a two-room central entrance hall facing south, a single-room 19th-century extension to the left, a two-room central entrance hall on the east front, and a 19th-century extension forming the rear angle.

The south front has two storeys and three first-floor windows. It features a plinth, a four-panelled door beneath an overlight within an architrave, and 16-pane sashes in flush wooden architraves with projecting sills. A plain wooden eaves board obscures the original brick cornice. The roof is hipped to the right. Axial and end stacks are present.

The east front, which forms the right return and faces the street, has a recessed panelled door beneath an overlight with margin lights, set within a beaded architrave with cornice and hood. 20th-century casements are set into original openings, along with projecting sills. Similar first-floor windows are present, with a narrower window above the entrance. Again, a plain wooden eaves board obscures the brick cornice. A raised and tumbled gable is on the right, with an end stack.
