Description

This is an early to mid-18th century house in Finningham, originally known as the White House. It was altered in the 20th century. The house is timber-framed with plastered walls, and has red brick end walls. It has black glazed pantiled and plaintiled roofs. The front of the house has three bays with end stacks and a two-bay service wing to the rear, forming a T-shaped plan. The house has two storeys, with a single storey and attic to the rear.

The original central entrance has been replaced with a window. The front has transomed, three-light, part-opening, architraved casements, with boxed eaves. The brick walls are in Flemish bond, with flared headers, moulded kneelers to the coped gable end parapets, external stacks with triple offsets and oversailing caps. Casements have been inserted into the right end wall. The service wing has a 20th-century panelled door and doorcase on the left return, along with 20th-century casements and two gabled dormers.

The rear gable end has an external stack with offsets, a tapering shaft, and a flanking pantiled oven. Exposed plates and purlins are also visible.

Inside, some of the original 18th-century timber framing is exposed, featuring ogee stop chamfered cross axial binding beams, through tension bracing, moulded jowled posts, and chamfered joists in the service wing.
