Yewtree Farmhouse

Yewtree Farmhouse is a 16th-century timber-framed house that has been plastered. It features steep gable-ended tiled roofs with 19th-century pierced barge boards and a jettied east end gable. There is a gabled cross wing at the west end and a small 17th-century timber-framed wing at the rear (north) of the cross wing. The building has two storeys and an attic, with the main east range having three widely spaced windows and the gabled cross wing having one window. The windows are modern mullion/transom casements with leaded panes. A brick chimney stack is off centre, with diagonally set shafts, and there is a central stack for the cross wing. The doorway is located in front of the chimney stack on the east part of the house. Inside the main range, there is an ovolo moulded ceiling beam with chamfered joists and a depressed arch brick fireplace. The west cross wing contains chamfered ceiling beams and a large fireplace with a timber bressumer, along with newel stairs at the rear of the wing adjoining the 17th-century north-west wing.
