Normanhurst was probably built by Matthew Rickinson and later owned by Sir William Cresswell Gray. During the First World War it was used as a convalescent home for injured soldiers. It later became a Roman Catholic school before converting to a public house (the White House) in the 1980s. It is located in Wooler Road.
