Description
White Cross Court is a house dated 1786, located on Wells Road in Whitchurch, Bristol. It features rendered, coursed rubble walls with limestone dressings, gable-end stacks, and a double Roman tile coped gable roof. The house has a double-depth plan and is designed in the mid Georgian style. It stands three storeys high and has a symmetrical front with a three-window range. The front includes an open square porch with a moulded cornice and blocking course, as well as a cornice and parapet with coping. The flat-headed windows have five stepped voussoirs and 8/8-pane sashes with fine bars and exposed cases, with smaller windows on the second storey. Above the middle first-floor window, there is a tablet incised with "1786 WHITE CROSS COURT." The interior has been largely re-modelled, featuring an entrance stair hall. Additionally, there are attached Pennant rubble front garden walls and an iron gate with Greek Revival details.
