Turner'S Arms Farmhouse And Attached Wall

Turner's Arms Farmhouse, originally an inn built in 1761, is now a farmhouse located on Fishponds Road in Yearby. The building features slightly later parapets, a porch, and a rear extension. It is constructed of brick in Flemish bond with stone dressings, while the parapets are in English garden wall bond. The roof, added around 1942, is made of asbestos sheets in the center, clay pantiles on the towers, and concrete tiles on the extension.

The farmhouse has an "H"-plan layout, with two storeys and a basement. The central section has three bays, while the slightly projecting end towers rise to three storeys and also have basements. A projecting porch is attached to the right bay of the center, featuring a six-panel door and a blocked overlight on the right side. The other faces of the building have windows, including renewed sash windows with glazing bars, keystones, and gauged brick flat arches, along with sill bands on the ground and first floors. The building is topped with embattled parapets and hipped roofs on the towers.

The left return has a two-bay configuration with a basement light on the right, a blocked central doorway, and blocked second-floor windows that are painted to mimic sashes. There is a late 20th-century metal flue between the bays and iron tie plates between the first and second floors. The rear of the farmhouse displays scattered fenestration and lateral stacks, with the middle stack being renewed. A single-storey monopitch rear extension is attached to the north tower. Additionally, a short screen wall at the north-east angle extends east for approximately 7 meters and features a boarded door within a blind round-headed carriage opening that has a keystone under a plain pediment at the eastern end. A mid-20th-century lean-to rear porch is present but is not of special interest.
