Description

The White House is a two-storey house built in 1930 by architect Amyas Connell, featuring an irregular splayed plan. Constructed from reinforced concrete, it has steel casement windows, primarily horizontal, and a parapet on the roof. The entrance is sheltered by a canopy, and there is a tall window behind it that allows light into the staircase leading to the roof. To the west, there is a single-storey garage extension that matches the original design. A sun roof of a different style has been added to the north side. This building is a rare example of modern movement architecture in this part of Surrey.

Local climate

The White House receives an average of 750 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 72% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 51% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 50% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
