Description

Yeaton House is a house dating from the late 18th century, with later additions and alterations. It is constructed of red brick and features a machine tile roof with wide tapering external end stacks. The house has three storeys and a stepped eaves cornice, with three windows that have glazing bar sashes. The first-floor windows are fitted with louvred shutters.

On either side of the central entrance, there are early 20th-century canted bay windows. The entrance itself consists of a recessed six-panel door, with the upper panels now glazed, and is topped by a semi-circular fanlight. A wrought-iron balcony with open quatrefoil patterns is located above the first-floor window. To the left, there is a lower service range that has a tall integral end stack with moulded capping. Additionally, there are various 19th-century outbuildings attached to the rear.

Inside, the central hall features a dog-leg staircase with slender turned balusters that have fluted and twisted decoration, with two balusters for each tread and an open string. The moulded handrail complements the staircase. The left ground-floor room includes a four-panel door set in an eared architrave, along with moulded dado panelling and oak floorboards. The second-floor rooms are said to have cast-iron Coalbrookdale fireplaces. A 20th-century conservatory attached to the front of the service range is not considered to have special architectural interest.
