White Horse Inn

The White Horse Inn is a public house that was formerly a coaching inn, dating from the early to mid 17th century, with extensive alterations and extensions made in the mid 19th century. The building is timber framed and plastered, with a whitewashed brick ground floor and a steeply-pitched plaintiled roof. It features a large layout consisting of three main cells and a two-bay kitchen wing at the rear, forming a T shape in plan.

The inn has two storeys and attics, with the entrance located in a 19th-century gabled porch to the right of the center. This porch has octagonal angle piers and a segmental-headed outer opening. Flanking the entrance are cross casements with chamfered mullions and transoms, while the outer bays have similar six-light mullion and transom casements. The ground floor has an offset plinth made of English bond brick, and there is a plat band at the first floor level with three, four, and three-light casements, all of which are topped with hoodmoulds.

Each cell has gables featuring two-light casements and wavy finialed bargeboards. A ridge stack to the left of center was rebuilt in the 19th century, featuring a moulded head at the base and four separate round shafts with helical mouldings. The gable ends also have similar casements, and there is an entrance with a segmental pointed arched head to the left. The kitchen wing extends to the rear right and has a similar ridge stack with fluted shafts. To the rear left, there is a 19th-century whitewashed brick addition with a shallow slate roof and a stack with four diagonally-set shafts.

Inside, the building features stop-chamfered cross-axial binding beams, although much of the frame is concealed. The double arched braces from the posts to the tie beams have been removed, and there are cambered collars supporting the side purlin roof. A 19th-century staircase with a ramped handrail and turned newel post is also present. Additionally, there is a 20th-century extension to the rear that connects to a rendered timber framed outbuilding with a pantiled roof.
