Description

The White Hart and Wisteria House is a public house and shop located on the north side of Manningtree High Street. The building has its origins in the early 16th century or earlier and has undergone various alterations and additions over time, with an 18th-century facade. It is timber framed with a red plain tiled roof and features two external red brick chimney stacks on the left and central sides. The 18th-century brick facades are painted to represent The White Hart, and there are courtyard and part weatherboarded crosswings and extensions at the rear.

The structure is two storeys high with attics and cellars, comprising six bays. The three bays on the right, which form Wisteria House, are slightly set forward, while the left range was formerly jettied. It has a parapet, a parapet band, and a central band on Wisteria House. The first floor has three small paned vertically sliding sash windows on each side, with gauged brick arches above.

There is a central carriageway leading to The White Hart, which is adorned with pilasters featuring capitals and bases, a frieze, and a flat canopy. To the left is a tripartite vertically sliding sash window, while the right side has a 19th or 20th-century part glazed door with sidelights, fanlights above, and a fascia. Wisteria House has two small paned vertically sliding sashes, with left and central doors that include reveal panels, friezes, and flat canopies on brackets. The doors are glazed with fanlights above, and the right door features semi-circular glazing bars.

Inside, the building showcases exposed ceiling beams and moulded and carved wall posts. The carriageway, which was formerly the hall, has moulded bridging and ceiling joists.
