Description
White Horse Cottage is a 17th-century or earlier house. It is timber-framed with brick end walls. The ground floor is rendered and scored to resemble stonework. The first floor oversails, supported by brackets and a pillar at the south end, and is clad in weatherboarding. The roof is half-hipped and covered with clay tiles. The cottage has three casement windows with intact glazing bars. A central doorway features a six-panelled door.
