Here are some pictures of the White Horse taken some time between 1996 and 2000. The White Horse is believed to have been a coaching inn. It stood on the Bath Road next to Brook Path and Two Mile Brook. It was known as Two Mile House before it became the White Horse. The age of the inn was unknown. It was demolished circa 2003.
