Historic Interest
400 year old building which still has the stables at the rear. one of the last rural public bars in the county. and
Originally a small late 17th/early 18th century building which was one of a number of McMullens pubs massively expanded in the 1930s (1933 in the case of the White Hart). Most of the expansion was on the lounge (west side) with a small flat roofed extension on the public bar side, The half timbering on the exterior all dates from the 1933 - note that only one chimney is from the 18th century; others are of 1930s brick. The bare floor boarded two-part public bar on the left was an off-sales and two small bars - the window between the two doors replacing the off sales door and there is a '2' on the inside of one of the doors. There were changes in the 1950s as the bar counter, dado panelling and brick fireplace appear to be from this date.The lounge has what looks like the 1933 bar back with columns and some modern additions but the bar counter only dates from 2000 There is a 1950s brick fireplace near the bar and another with wood surround, tiled floor and brick infill in the rear dining room part behind. In 2000 a former office was converted into an extension to the dining room. On first floor in the private quarters there is a wonderful plaster ceiling, panelling and fireplace of original building.
