Description
White Gate Farmhouse is an early 19th-century farmhouse constructed with Flemish bond brickwork. It features bracketed eaves and a slate roof, with brick stacks at both ends. The building has a symmetrical frontage, standing two storeys tall with an attic and comprising three bays. The first floor is adorned with 16-pane sash windows, while the ground floor has French windows, each accompanied by a transom light. The window openings are framed with rubbed brick voussoirs and central dressed stone keys. The central entrance has a six-panelled door, with the top two panels glazed, and is sheltered by a wooden hood supported by two Tuscan columns and half-columns attached to the wall. To the left, there is a lower outshut with a pantile roof, coped verges, a brick stack, and a single bay featuring casements with glazing bars.
