Description
White House Farmhouse is an early 18th-century three-storey farmhouse. The south front and northeast wing are rendered with stone quoins, while the northwest wing is made of painted rubble stone. It features a hipped slate roof with stone end stacks. The south front has windows with stone sills, including three 2+2+2 pane casements on the second floor and three corresponding 3+3+3 casements on the first floor. The ground floor has a 20th-century glazed porch with a hipped slate roof in the center, flanked by 16-pane hornless sash windows on each side.
On the east elevation, there is a 9-pane sash window on the first floor and a 12-pane sash window on the ground floor to the left, with similar windows on the side wall of the rear wing to the right. At the back of the house, there is a single-storey lean-to outshut with a slate roof in the center, flanked by the two-storey rear wings. Both wings have hipped slate roofs, with their ridges rising just below the eaves level of the main house. The east wing contains a ground-floor kitchen, which has an attached bread oven with a slate roof at the end gable. The west wing features a flight of stone steps leading to a boarded door of the upper dairy, which has 2+2 pane casements in segmental arched openings on the gable and side wall.
The front door is a three-panel design with a rectangular bottom panel, two vertical panels above, and a rectangular overlight with lattice glazing. Entering the house leads into a central stair hall. The principal ground-floor rooms on the left and right have six-panel doors, with the left room featuring a moulded ceiling cornice. The ground-floor front windows have panelled shutters and reeded architraves with angle-blocks. An early 19th-century stair with a rounded newel post and square balusters leads to the upper floors. The back kitchen has square-section ceiling beams and an early 18th-century fireplace surround with a wooden spit-rack as an overmantel. The stone-flagged dairy includes a pig salting slab on brick piers.
