Description
This is an early 18th-century house, altered in later periods. It is located on Bargate Street in Brewood. The house is constructed of brick, painted white on the front, with a tiled roof featuring coped verges and brick stacks. It is now arranged with a double-depth plan. The house stands two storeys high, with a dormer window to the attic. It has a moulded eaves cornice and three windows to the front, featuring glazing bar sashes with flat, large keystones; the ground-floor window on the left has four panes. The central entrance has a six-panel door with a radiating fanlight, set within a 20th-century open pedimented doorcase. Decorative cast-iron railings are located at the front of the property.
The ground floor interior has been altered, but the early 18th-century dog-leg staircase from the first floor remains. It features a wide handrail and turned, vase-shaped balusters with square knops. There are dropped tie-seams in the roof to accommodate the attic space. One roof truss in the rear roof appears to be a re-used king-post truss, possibly originating from the adjacent Nos 7 or 9, which incorporate remnants of a late medieval roof and with which The White House partly interlocks (these buildings are not included in this listing).
A mid-19th-century cast iron pump and a stone trough are located at the rear of the property.
