Description

The Yews is a house dating from the 18th century, with extensions added in the 19th century. It is constructed of coursed rubble stone, featuring quoins and stone dressings, and has a Welsh slate roof with both stone and brick stacks at the central ridge and ends. The building has two storeys and includes three 3-light casement windows with stone dressings, most of which have concreted lintels. The central window on the ground floor has stone mullions, and there is a part-glazed door to the left. At the rear, there are single-storey extensions, and the interior features beams and an inglenook fireplace.
