Ground floor of No.28 has C19 shop window with fascia and consoles, with early C20 hardwood shop front of plate glass with cant-sided recess to door. Rear elevation of the White Horse is rendered with dogtooth eaves course, also over 2-storey contemporary rear range. Above the carriageway, sash windows on each floor with 12 square panes each. The 2-storey rear block has a 12-paned sash window on each floor and mixture of C19 and C20 small windows. To the rear of this is a long rendered timber-framed range with plain tile roof with one bay of narrower span roof at S end. The eaves have a considerable overhang and this is supported on 2 straight raking braces and a later hanging knee. A C20 slate-roofed single-storey lean-to conceals part of this flank. One C19 casement window with central horizontal glazing bar on 1st floor and C20 doors and windows on ground floor.

INTERIOR: rear timber-framed range has central open truss with arch braces to the tie beam and north wall forming a partition. Spine beams and bridging joists of floor are chamfered with lambs-tongue stops. The eaves overhang is a curious feature which may relate to
the Wealden house type or may have sheltered a gallery.
