White Hall Hotel (Numbers 9-11) And Attached Railings

The White Hall Hotel (numbers 9-11) comprises five terraced houses dating to approximately 1662-1665 and built by T Coxe. The buildings underwent numerous alterations in the 18th and 19th centuries. Numbers 10, 11, and 13 were refronted around 1770-1772, and a third floor was added in 1841. The facades were stuccoed around 1862 in an Italianate style. Numbers 9-11 form a symmetrical group with a recessed central bay topped by a pediment. The building has a slated mansard roof with dormers. It stands four storeys high, with number 10 having an additional attic story and a basement. Each house has three windows.

The ground floor is rusticated, and pilasters rise from the first floor, defining each house and supporting the entablature, which features a dentil cornice on the outer bays. A square-headed doorcase features pilasters, a round-headed arch with a keystone and voussoirs, paterae, and cornice, as well as a fanlight and two-leaf panelled doors. Ground floor windows include hexagonal and small square leaded lights. The architraved two-pane sash windows on the first floor have cornices, while the second floor also has cornices that break upwards over the keystones; the first floor windows have wrought-iron balconies. A balustraded parapet tops the outer bays, while the central bay features a pediment over the attic storey with an enriched tympanum containing a cartouche bearing the words "White Hall".

The interior was reconstructed for use as a hotel in 1909-11 and has not been inspected. Numbers 12 and 13 continue the terrace to the north, maintaining a similar style but without mansard roofs or dormers. They also feature square-headed recessed doorways with fanlights and panelled doors. Number 12 contains a panelled ground floor front room, which was formerly the office of the historian Sir Nikolaus Pevsner.

Attached to the areas are late 19th-century cast-iron railings. Number 10 was the residence of Dr Robert Willan, a dermatologist, and a plaque commemorating him is present.
