Description
White House is a building likely from the 18th century, which includes earlier materials at the rear within the castle bailey. It features a two-storey symmetrical front with roughcast render, three windows wide, and casement windows. There are brick stacks at each end and a wooden door situated under a flat hood. Below the garden at the rear, there is a late 16th or early 17th century barrel-vaulted rubble undercroft. This undercroft is located within the archaeological site of Knighton Castle.
