Description
Yews Farmhouse is a cottage dating from the 16th century, which was refronted in the late 18th century. It features a red brick front set on a coursed rubble plinth, and is likely built with a complete timber frame. The roof is covered with pantiles and there are two red brick gable stacks. The building has two storeys and three bays, with a central doorway that has a panelled door surrounded by a moulded wooden frame. On either side of the doorway are single sash windows. Above the doorway, there is a small pointed arched fixed light with glazing bars. A wooden post rises from the plinth to the eaves on the right side of the doorway, and a similar post is located at the left angle. On the first floor, there are two sash windows. To the left, there is a single-storey, single-bay extension made of coursed rubble and pantiles, which has a single sash window. The rear of the house features two Yorkshire sashes with glazing bars, with the right one being larger, and above them are two more Yorkshire sashes and a central small glazing bar casement. To the right, there is a projecting single-storey brick extension. Inside, many timbers are visible, including a large bridging beam and a chamfered beam on the ground floor, as well as post, brace, and tie beams on the first floor. Some doors have L-shaped hinges.
