Description
The White Horse Hotel is a building located on the Great North Road in Eaton Socon. It features an early 18th-century frontage, likely with an older core, and includes a later gabled north wing. The hotel is two storeys tall and constructed from red brick, topped with an old tiled roof that is hidden behind a panelled parapet with a plain band below. The facade has four flush sash windows with rendered flat arches that include keyblocks. There are two semi-octagonal window bays and a splayed window bay in the gable wall of the north wing. The two northern window bays are two storeys high with hipped tiled roofs, while the southern window bay is a single storey with a flat modern cornice. There are two doorways, each featuring cut bracketed doorhoods. The north elevation of the north wing has two storeys and attics, which previously had hipped dormers but now has three modern casements in the attic storey that are flush with the wall below. This elevation also includes five flush framed sash windows. The central doorway features a fanlight with pointed arched glazing bars, a flush panel door, and a surround with carved consoles and open pediments. The White Horse Hotel, along with Nos 99 and 101, forms a cohesive group.
