Description

The White House, located at 41 and 42 Hawley Square, is an early 19th-century building that stands three storeys tall with a basement and area. Number 41 is constructed of brown brick, while Number 42 is finished in stucco. Both houses feature a parapet and have three windows, most of which retain their original glazing bars. Notably, Number 42 includes a three-light bay window on the ground floor, topped by a string course. Additionally, Number 41 showcases a decorated keystone. The buildings at Nos 39 to 51 are part of a cohesive group.

It experiences an average of 8 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 94% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 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.
