Description

Yew Tree Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates from the 17th century and 19th century. It features a timber frame with brick nogging, which has been rendered in the 20th century, and has a steeply pitched roof covered with interlocking tiles. The building has a single gable and a single ridge stack, and it is two storeys high with garrets, arranged in three bays. The layout is L-shaped, with a baffle entry.

The east front has an off-centre 20th-century door with a segmental head, flanked on the left by two 20th-century casement windows and on the right by a single 20th-century casement. Above, there are three 20th-century casements. The south gable retains a remnant of a Yorkshire sash window in the garret. The rear elevation includes 19th-century lean-to additions made of brick with pantile roofs, located in the return angle and to the west of the rear wing. The left lean-to features a close boarded door in plain jambs, while the right side has two 20th-century casements. Above, to the left, there is a 20th-century Yorkshire sash and a 20th-century casement, with two Yorkshire sashes of different sizes to their right. The rear wing has 20th-century windows and retains remnants of a leaded Yorkshire sash above.

Inside, the farmhouse has a principal rafter roof with clasp purlins, three jowled bay posts, and chamfered span beams and joists. The north end features a 17th-century oak winder stair that extends to the garret, complete with square 19th-century newels and stick balusters. The south end has an early 19th-century winder stair in a square well, with turned newels, stick balusters, and an oval moulded handrail. Additionally, there is a single early 19th-century hob grate and two 17th-century and three 18th-century plank doors.
