Description
The White House is a house that dates back to the 17th century, featuring a structure framed from that period but with an elevation from the 18th century. The building is made of painted brick and has a steep hipped roof covered with plain tiles, along with a ridge stack. It stands two storeys high and has a four-window front. The windows are 19th-century casements, with those on the ground floor having segment-head surrounds. To the left, there is a lean-to addition that includes a half-glazed and panelled door, which is situated behind a modern porch.
