White House Farm (revised plan)
"Old timers" on the forum will probably know the layout of WHF like the back of their hand, but for newbies this revised plan may prove helpful.
It's based on the following paragraph, which I think was lifted off the last forum or the blue forum (I can't remember which):-
The front of the house is denoted Red, and the side with the kitchen is denoted White. Opposite Red and White are Green and Black respectively.
On entry via the external door on the White side, there was a door to the kitchen on the right (Red) and a door (not bolted) to the room with the gun cupboard to the left (Green). Straight ahead, there was apparently visible a third external door (bolted) on Black side. The nearby staircase provides access to the upstairs office and a storeroom. The police couldn't go via that storeroom to the rest of the house, as the connecting door was secured on Red side. The main staircase (to the bedrooms) can be accessed from the front door (on Red side). The kitchen has a second door to a corridor that leads to the main staircase and front door. The kitchen also has doors to a room (on Black side) behind the kitchen (the pantry) and to a third staircase, which also provides access to the main first floor.
The straight flight of the office staircase (S3) must lie parallel to the external wall (east) as it cuts across the small high-level window (8) which is just visible from outside in photo 2 (to the right of the telegraph pole, about a third of the way up).
The dimensions of the den, rear hall, upper office and store, or the handing of the doors may no be wholly accurate, but the general location is I think correct.
The laundry as drawn on Jeremy Bamber's sketch is more problematic, as to whether it was integral with the den or separated from it by a wall. There must be a sink on the west wall here, as a waste pipe is visible in photos of that (WHITE) side.
The bolted door (5) is the one shown in photo 3.
Any comments good or bad welcome, (even if you think it's totally wrong!)
