Description
Whitehouse is a farmhouse, now a house, that likely dates from the 17th century and has undergone some alterations in the late 20th century. It features a sandstone rubble plinth and a timber frame with plaster and brick infill, topped with stone slate and pantile roofs and brick stacks. The building has a T-plan layout with a cross-wing at the east end and stands two storeys high with attics.
The north elevation displays a window arrangement of three to the left and two to the right, primarily consisting of three-light late 20th-century casements, along with 18th and 19th-century casements on the gable front to the left. There is a gabled porch located to the right of the centre of the cross-wing and a late 20th-century gabled porch facing the east road.
Inside, there is a large central stack in the main east/west range, several ledged doors from the 17th or 18th century, and a blocked triangular-headed doorway at the ground floor where the two ranges meet. The main range features plain collar trusses, with raking struts from the ties to the principals in the cross-wing, except in the gable ends.
