White House

The White House is a house, later converted into flats, with an early 18th century timber-framed rear wing and a mid-18th century block attached to the east. The front was refaced in stuccoed and colourwashed brick during the early 19th century. The roof facing the street is slate, while the rear wing has pantiles. The house has a three-storey facade with a five-window range. A single-storey, central porch features quadrant corners and a double-leaf door with three panels, topped with a fixed overlight with glazing bars. Railings on top create a balcony, accessible by a French window to the first floor. The windows are largely 8/8 unhorned sashes; at the second floor, the disposition is 4/8. Some ground and first-floor sashes are blind. The roof is hipped, with two stacks on the rear slope. A two-storey addition to the north has a sloping roof, with an 8/8 unhorned sash window on the ground floor and a narrow 4/4 sash on the first floor. The rear wing has 20th-century casement windows. The interior of the timber-framed wing retains hollow-chamfered bridging beams. The front block's plan was altered during the late 20th century conversion to flats. A mid-18th century open-string staircase has three turned balusters per tread and a ramped moulded handrail. A panelled dado is also present.
