Description

White Friars is a house dating from the 15th to early 16th century, with alterations made in 1600 and later. The northern front features exposed timber framing in the two left bays, while the rest of the building is constructed from whitewashed brick. It has an old tile roof and two intermediate brick chimneys. The house is one storey with an attic and consists of four bays that slightly angle at the center, with the left bay gabled at the front. The windows are mostly diamond leaded casements, many of which were renewed in the 20th century. The left bay of the southern front has three-light casements with segmental heads, while the second bay features a three-light casement below the eaves and a door in a lean-to tiled porch. The right-hand bays contain paired casements in gabled eaves-line dormers and irregular ground floor windows with cambered heads. There is a lower extension to the right with two single lights. Inside, the house has cruck trusses flanking the third bay, some other timber framing, and the right bay features stop-chamfered joists and a spine beam on a bracket dated TBF 1600.
