Description

Yeoman House is a house dating from the late 18th century or early 19th century. It has a timber frame that is plastered and features pantiled roofs. The building has a two-cell lobby entry plan with a two-bay backhouse at the rear, creating a T-shaped layout. It is one storey high with attics. The central entrance has a six-panelled door with an architrave, flanked by two-light casement windows, and features hoodboards and boxed eaves. There are two-light gabled dormers and a large axial ridge stack at the center of the roof. The gable ends have casement windows, and the roof shows exposed plates and purlins that are slightly raised. At the rear right, there is a weatherboarded lean-to. The backhouse facing the green has a boarded door to the right leading to the main range, along with two and three-light glazing bar casements with hoodboards and a dual two-light gabled dormer. The left or rear gable end has a large external stack with flanking pantiled oven outshuts, and again, exposed plates and purlins are visible. Inside, there are stop-chamfered cross axial binding beams and through tension bracing, with 'WB 1816' marked on the pump in the backhouse.
