Yew Tree Cottage

Yew Tree Cottage is a house that dates from the 17th century, with additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. It features a timber frame with brick infill and whitewashed walling, topped with a slate roof. The building has a baffle-entry plan, a central ridge chimney, two cells, and two storeys. The entrance front includes a stone plinth and brick walling, with a central 19th-century porch. The ground floor has chamfered mullion windows with three lights, while the upper floors have 19th-century dormer windows. There are 20th-century additions on both the left and right sides, as well as an outshut at the rear. The right gable end displays small framing with two rows of four panels and a three-light casement window on the ground floor. The ridge is exposed.

Inside, the parlour features chamfered beams and a new bressumer over the hearth. The staircase, which is located behind the chimney breast, now leads up from the outshut with a landing, but it likely originally had a quarter turn with winders starting at the right of the inglenook. There is a small-framed staircase well, and one raised cruck near the chimney breast is exposed in the stairwell, with the remaining trusses supported by posts.
