White Horse Inn

The White Horse Inn is a public house that dates back to the 16th century, with an exterior that was altered in the early 19th century. The building is timber-framed but has been encased and extended in red brick, which is now painted. It features plaintiles, pierced and fluted bargeboards with spike finials on the gables, and a brick dentil cornice. There are various single-storey extensions at the rear made of flint and timber framing with pantiled roofs. The inn is two storeys high with attics and has a three-cell plan in the main range.

Inside, there is a red brick internal chimney stack with a shaft that has recessed panels and a corbelled head. The windows are small-paned sash windows, with four on the upper floor in cased frames that have slight reveals, and three on the ground floor with gauged heads in the brickwork, including one tripartite sash. The entrance door is a small recessed six-panelled door, with the top four panels glazed and a gauged head to the brick surround.

The interior of the main range is divided into two distinct sections. To the left of the stack, there are three bays with well-preserved studding, short angled jowls on the main posts, and arched braces that have been removed. There is also a complete five-light diamond-mullioned window on the rear upper wall. The main two-bay room on the ground floor features very fine double roll-mouldings on the main cross-beams and stops in leaf form, with joists that have run-off stops. The end bay, which was originally a separate parlour, has a main beam with a leaf stop and bar. The roof over this section includes principal rafters, clasped purlins, windbraces, and arched braces that meet at the centre below the cambered collar of the open truss. The inner side of the partition against the chimney stack and the rafters beside it show heavy blackening, indicating that this area was part of a smoke bay into which the stack was inserted later.

To the right of the stack, the framing is mostly covered and of poorer quality, with a roof featuring butt and clasped purlins that has undergone many repairs. There is also a 18th-century timber-framed rear wing that has very poor framing.
