Pevsner's Cambridgeshire (with Simon Bradley, 2014) says:
Stetchworth. OLD WHITE HOUSE [sic, Old White Horse], by the lane to the church. By CFA Voysey, 1905, for the 3rd Earl of Ellesmere. Built as an inn. Quintessential Voysey, with its Westmorland-slated roof storey sheltering white-rendered walls and plain stone-mullioned windows, but with a big stable court instead of a garden behind.
Description on Historic England
TL 65 NW STETCHWORTH HIGH STREET (West Side) 6/156 The Old White
Horse GV II.
House, formerly an inn built in 1905 for the Earl of Ellesmere by
C.F.A. Voysey. Free style design. Roughcast render to buttressed brick walls
with limestone dressings; flared hipped plain tile roof and attic roofs. Slender
iron brackets to gutters. Two tall symmetrical ridge stacks. One storey and
attic, L-plan. Rear wing, extending as loggia links stables to south-west
forming courtyard. Main facade to north-east of four 'bays'; central 'bays' with
facade gable and hipped dormer window to left hand. Entrance originally through
recessed open porch with braced wooden posts, recently infilled by small-paned
glazed doors and fixed windows. Two attic windows, and three ground floor
windows, casements of six-five- and four-leaded lights with plain limestone
mullions and architraves. Wall and double gated courtyard entrance to north-east
with opposing arched entrance with flared hipped roof. Interior details largely
unaltered include staircase, panelling, inglenook hearths and rounded arches to
openings. VCH, Vol.VI, p.172. Pevsner, Buildings of England, p.461. A. Service,
