Description

The White House is a 17th-century timber-framed and plastered house located at the corner of Church Street and Park Street in Stoke-by-Nayland. It was refronted in the 18th century. The building features two gables on the front, with a large gable at the south-east end and a smaller one at the north-west end. It has two storeys and a four-window range, consisting of double-hung sashes with glazing bars. The central part of the house includes a notable 18th-century double fronted shopfront with glazing bars, where one window has 32 panes and another has 16 panes. There are also two four-panel doors with rectangular fanlights, and a moulded wood cornice extends across the shopfront. The roof is tiled.

Local climate

The White House sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 690 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 62% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
