The White Hart Public House, with Boundary Wall

The White Hart Public House, with its boundary wall, is a mid-18th century public house, with later alterations. It is constructed of coursed rubble, some parts rendered, with pantile and slate roofs. The main range has a parallel design, with a rear section possibly dating from earlier than the front range, and a lower service wing set at an angle to the left.

The front of the building is rendered and three storeys high. The second floor has five six-pane sash windows in deep reveals, with a blind, painted window in the centre. The first and ground floors feature two large, plain sashes in splayed reveals. A part-glazed door is centrally positioned on the ground floor, sheltered by a slab hood supported on heavy brackets, with a deep platband extending across, above plain quoin pilasters, carrying to a moulded eaves course. The roof is steeply pitched with slate, coped gables, and stacks. To the left is a two-storey wing with a pantiled roof, containing a twelve-pane sash and a painted blind opening above the pub front. This wing also has four pairs of pilasters, an fascia, and a cornice, plus a two-light and four-pane window and a pair of panelled doors with a transom light. An acute-angled coped gable faces the street.

The rear of the main ranges has two small four-pane windows above two twelve-pane windows and a central door leading to an escape stair at first floor. The return to Prior Park Road is double-gabled, with two plain sash windows at ground floor level. A boundary wall, approximately 3.5 metres high and constructed of coursed rubble, runs alongside the property, including a pair of plank doors and stopped garage doors at the right-hand end.

The interior was not inspected and has been much altered, with extensive modernisation in 1998 to adapt a former skittle alley into accommodation. The pub’s location near Allen’s stone wharf and the turnpike road to Bradford and Trowbridge made it a suitable spot for a public house. It shares stylistic features with Ralph Allen’s Cottages nearby and may have been part of Wood the Elder’s plan for housing related to Allen's stone-masonry business; thus, it is an important feature in this 18th century artisan and industrial area.
