Description

The White House is an early 19th-century building, possibly with an earlier core. It features painted render and is three window bays wide, with the outer bays containing tripartite sash windows divided by glazing bars. The building has a later gabled central porch with plain bargeboards and stained glass lights. Above the porch, there is a four-light sash window at the first-floor level. The roof is hipped and slated, with rendered chimney stacks. There is also a later rear extension.

Local climate

The White House sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 670 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 99% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 99% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 27 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 71% of listed buildings. Of these, 12 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
