Description
Whitehall Farmhouse is a mid-17th century farmhouse located on Walsingham Road in Burnham Thorpe. The west front and returns are constructed of flint, clunch, and brick dressings, while the east front features an 18th-century English bond brick skin, all of which are colourwashed. The building has a shingled roof and stands two storeys tall with four windows.
On the east front, there are four ground floor 19th-century camber-headed casements, with three lights at the south and two lights at the north. The first floor has four casements, and there are two 20th-century doors. The roof is steeply pitched and includes one axial stack and one stack at the south end, while a large external brick stack with set-offs is located at the north.
The west front features a two-storey gable wing at right angles to the south, which has two windows, attic brick kneelers with pedestals, and a coped parapet with a central blocked arched opening. In the centre, there is a two-storey cut-down entrance gable with a continuous lean-to. To the south, there are two large blocked brick-dressed openings, and a 19th-century two-storey service wing is attached at the south.
