Description
The White Hart is an inn, reputedly dating from 1475, although recorded as an inn from 1750. The fabric is mainly 17th century and later. It is constructed of rubble and random coursed rubble stone, with large flush quoins to the west end. The front has a stone slate roof, while the rear has some slate and artificial stone slate. There are various stacks, including two external stacks on the west end, and one stone ridge stack with a decorative cornice, likely from the 17th century.
The building is a long range along the street, now incorporating former cottages and a small stable-type building at the east end, but formerly ending with a range including a cross-gabled wing. It is mostly two storeys high, with a small rear wing at the west end and a lean-to across part of the rear of the main section.
At the west end are two small sashes, likely from the late 17th century, one with 18 panes and one with 12 panes, featuring original glazing bars and large quoins. An inserted plate glass window sits below, and originally there was a wider door to the right, now with a timber lintel. There are two small four-pane sashes on the first floor and two 20th-century three-light windows below to the right, adjacent to a jettied timber-framed gable with incised render and a 15-pane sash (5 over 10). A 20th-century window is below this. The remaining blocks have scattered fenestration, with several blocked openings with timber lintels, including former cottage doorways. The gable is stone built at the rear.
