Description
Yew Tree Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that was remodeled in the late 18th century, with a 19th-century addition to the east. The building is constructed of buff brick with red brick dressings and features a pantile roof with brick coped gables and two gable stacks. It has two storeys and an L-plan layout with three windows.
The central entrance has a pedimented 20th-century timber porch that contains a 19th-century half-glazed door, supported by scroll brackets. This porch is flanked by two 19th-century canted timber bays with flat lead roofs and margin-light sash windows. Above the porch, there are three 20th-century aluminium glazing bar sashes.
The 19th-century addition to the east has a steeply pitched pantile roof, a coped gable, dentillated eaves, and a single gable stack. It features a central 20th-century plain sash window and rounded corners on the east end. The rear wing, dating from the 17th century, is made of coursed blue lias rubble and brick, with a timber post at the north-east corner. It has cogged eaves, an eaves band, a single ridge stack, and irregular 20th-century fenestration.
