Description

Yeldham's Farmhouse is a house dating from around 1570, with an extension added in the early 19th century. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The building has three bays aligned northwest to southeast, facing southeast. There is a 19th or 20th-century external stack on the front end of the right return wall, and a 18th-century lean-to extension at the rear, which creates a catslide roof. An early 19th-century wing is located to the left at the rear, featuring an axial stack at the right end, forming an L-shape. The house is two storeys high.

In the left wing, there is a one-window range of early 19th-century sashes with 16 lights made of crown glass, along with a four-panel door at the front of a gabled porch in the angle. The right wing has a two-window range of 20th-century casements and a 20th-century glazed door. The gable is weatherboarded. At the rear end of the right block, there is an early 19th-century sash with 16 lights and crown glass, as well as a 19th-century horizontally sliding sash with 18 lights on its left side. The rear end of the right roof is hipped.

Inside, the farmhouse features jowled posts, some exposed close studding, and original wattle and daub infill. There are chamfered transverse and axial beams, chamfered joists with horizontal sections and lamb's tongue stops, and a complete crowpost roof with axial bracing.
