Description
The White House is a two-storey cottage from the early to mid-19th century, featuring a single window. It has a fairly low-pitched slated roof and is constructed of painted brick with a plinth. The cottage has modern steel casement windows and a four-panel door, with the upper two panels being glazed, situated beneath a bracketed flat hood. The building is listed primarily for its group value, as it is part of a collection that includes Tudor Cottage, Carter's Cross, White House, Bibury, Nos 1 to 4, and Bank Cottage, which together form a group with Corner Cottage on High Street.
