Yew Tree Farmhouse

This is a late 16th-century farmhouse, with a 17th-century extension to the rear, and further extensions and remodelling around 1830. It has been converted into a house. The house is timber-framed, with light timbering and diagonal bracing to the rear. The front elevation is brick, in a Flemish bond style, with a gable end of flint rubble. The roof is hipped and covered in old plain tiles, with brick ridge stacks and a lateral stack to the rear right.

The original house had a three-unit plan, likely with a former smoke bay to the right of centre. A late 17th-century wing added to the rear creates an L-shaped plan. The house is two storeys high, with a two-window range to the left and a symmetrical three-window range to the right. There are mid-20th-century bracketed hood and pedimented doorcases, the right-hand one featuring an early 19th-century six-panelled door. The windows on the right have cambered, gauged brick arches, while those on the left have flat gauged brick arches, with restored 3-light transomed casements and iron opening lights.

To the rear, an outshut, originally used as a dairy, adjoins the rear left wing.

The interior reveals exposed timber framing, with arch bracing to tie beams, although many have been removed. The butt-purlin roof was remodeled in the early 19th century. Shutters grooves are visible on the rear wall, flanking ground and first-floor window openings. These include a six-light diamond-mullioned window. A room on the left has a chamfered bressummer over the fireplace in the rear wall. The central room contains stop-chamfered beams and joists, an open fireplace with a plain bressummer flanked by 18th-century cupboards with butterfly hinges. A room on the right has a chamfered beam heightened in the early 19th century and a late 18th-century panelled door adjoining a fireplace with a neo-classical grate. A 17th-century winder stair is located to the rear of the stack, alongside an early 19th-century stick-baluster staircase. Both 17th-century plank doors and early 19th-century panelled doors are present. The late 17th-century rear wing has four-light diamond-mullioned windows to the rear, retaining 19th-century shutters to the first floor, and includes a collar truss with butt purlins.
