Whitehouse, Ipswich

The name comes from a late 17th Century building which still exists and is Grade II listed building near the Norwich Road, but now accessed by Limerick Close.

[1] The Whitehouse Ward, Ipswich takes its name from the area.

It was a substantial country house on the edge of the village – until it became absorbed into Ipswich as the town grew during the first half of the 20th Century.

It is listed Grade II which still stands on the edge of the White House estate.

Lovetofts Drive: running north from the end of Bramford Lane to Whitehouse Road is named after John de Lovetot who had a grant of free warren there in 1277.
