Description
White House Farm Cottage is a house with a left-hand portion that has a core dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century. The rest of the building was likely reconstructed in the late 18th century to create a pair of farm cottages. The earlier portion has a timber-framed core, while the rest is built of red brick, topped with a thatched roof. The cottage is two storeys high with attics and features two windows with 18th-century three-light casements set under flat brick arches. There is a central blank panel on the ground floor, with a boarded door to the left; the doorway on the right has been bricked up. A central axial stack is present, and there are later single-storey additions at both gable ends. Inside, the earlier core of the house displays exposed joists and a bridging beam with broach stop-chamfers. Similar stop-chamfers can be seen on two rear wall posts and on the girding beam next to the stack. Some 17th-century framing is exposed in the rear wall, but the roof is of a later date.
