Yew Tree Cottage

Yew Tree Cottage is a house that likely dates from the mid to late 16th century, with some parts rebuilt and extended in the late 20th century. It features a timber frame with red brick nogging and plain tile roofs, arranged in an L-shape. The hall range on the left consists of two framed bays, while the gabled cross-wing on the right also has two framed bays. The building is one storey high with an attic, and it has three 20th-century gabled dormers with two-light wooden casements on the hall range. There is a central brick stack behind the ridge and a truncated red sandstone external lateral stack to the right of the cross-wing.

The framing of the hall range has been mainly rebuilt, showing square panels and short straight braces, with some 17th-century framing visible at the rear. The cross-wing features close-studded framing with a middle rail and long straight tension braces. The hall range has one- and two-light 20th-century wooden casements and a porch with a lean-to roof at the right angle, which includes a six-panelled door flanked by casements. To the left, there is a 20th-century addition under the same roof that has a pair of steel garage doors. The gable end of the cross-wing has a jettied first floor supported by a moulded bressumer and shaped brackets, along with a collar and tie-beam truss featuring V-struts. Each floor of the cross-wing has a three-light wooden casement. At the rear of the cross-wing, there is a close-studded lean-to, and there is also a 20th-century addition at the rear of the hall range.

Inside, the cottage has chamfered and stopped beams, a chamfered cross-beam ceiling in the left-hand bay of the hall range with broach stops, and an open fireplace in the cross-wing.
