This Grade II* listed property is an impressive feature at the heart of the picturesque village of Cheam. From the permanent displays about the history of Whitehall, Cheam and the surrounding area, and of course the 500 year old building itself inside, to the distinct white weatherboarding, projecting upper story, and sloping porch outside, Whitehall Historic House stands out as something special.<h3>Stay Up To Date</h3>Find all our current events here: <a href="http://www.suttonculturalservices.eventbrite.com/">http://www.suttonculturalservices.eventbrite.com/</a>Want to find out about future events?
