Description

Whitehill House, located at Whitehill End, is an early 19th-century house that has been converted into three dwellings. It features two large side wings added in the late 19th century. The building is constructed of painted stucco and has slate roofs with moulded ridge stacks and one axial stack at the west end. Originally designed with a double-depth plan, it now has an H-plan layout due to the later wings.

The exterior is two storeys high and presents a symmetrical six-window arrangement on the main garden front. It has wide bracketed eaves and 6/6-pane sash windows with crown glass and fine glazing bars, lacking horns on the central block. The first-floor windows are adorned with cast-iron balconettes, and there is a prostyle Tuscan porch. The gabled side wings feature raised quoins that extend as an eaves band over tripartite sash windows, each with two panes and moulded architraves. The rear of the building, which includes entrances, has 19th and 20th-century windows. The central dwelling boasts a late 19th-century coloured leaded glass stair window and a fanlight above the door, which is complemented by a 20th-century window in a first-floor bay supported by brackets. The rear of the left-hand wing has two cast-iron columns that support the upper floor, with the rest of the rear featuring glazing bar sashes.

Inside, the left-hand late 19th-century wing retains original joinery, rich plasterwork, and a marble fireplace.
