Description

White Horse Farmhouse is an early 17th century timber-framed house that is plastered. It features a thatched roof with gabled ends and has a large brick chimney stack that is off centre, consisting of four octagonal shafts with moulded brick bases. There is also an internal brick stack at the west end of the house. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a central gable that includes a 5-light ovolo-moulded mullion window. To the right on the first floor, there is a similar 4-light window, and on the ground floor to the left, there is a small 4-light mullion window. The remaining windows are 18th and 19th century 3-light casements, and there is a modern bay window on the left side.
