The following information is taken from (S3) and is based on the personal recollections of a previous owner who lived in the building during the 1960s.
House believed to have been built in 1540 [1] and has no foundations and just sits on a sand base. A William of Orange shilling has been found in a bread oven beside the inglenook fireplace. The house was the original White Horse Public house in the parish.
'The Barn' next to The Lavender House was used as a canteen for the Royal Engineers during the Second World War.
