Description

The White House is a house that was formerly the Vicarage, built in the 18th century. It features painted brick with a moulded eaves cornice and a tiled roof, which is slated on the right side. The building has two storeys and a five-window facade, with a two-window 19th-century addition on the right. There is a plinth and a plat-band, and the windows are glazing bar sash windows. To the left of the porch, there are two false windows with painted imitation glazing bars. The porch is a modern projecting painted brick structure, and there is a Regency bow window on the side.
