The White Hart Inn. 15th century hall with cross-wings. Extensively altered in the 18th and 19th century. RCHM 16. Grade II. <1>
The White Hart Inn is of two storeys with cellars. It was built in the 15th century, with a central Hall flanked by solar and buttery wings; the buttery or south-west wing is prolonged at the back. Probably in the 16th century the hall was divided into two storeys and the roof heightened. On the north-west front the upper storey of the cross-wing projects, and is gabled; on the north-east elevation of the south-east wing the upper storey also projects, and the timber-framing is exposed. The roof of the south-west wing has original king-post trusses. <2>
