Description
Yew Tree Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century, with possibly earlier work at the rear. It features a timber-framed main range and a 17th-century parapet gable end on the left side. The facade is cased in 19th-century red brick, while some exposed studding is visible on the rear wall. The roof is plaintiled at the front and pantiled at the rear. The building has two storeys and a two-cell form, with three mid-20th century large-paned casement windows under segmental arches, and a 19th-century boarded door to the right. The parapet gable end includes a moulded brick panel with a shield that bears the date 1568 and the initials 'IH' and 'AM', likely reset from another part of the house. Above this, there are two additional panels that may have once been small attic windows. An integral stack is present, and the upper rooms feature an ovolo-moulded cornice. At the rear, there is a 1.5 storey plastered and pantiled service range, which may have originally been detached, with an axial stack adjoining the main range. The service range displays some good limewashed framing and has blocked diamond-mullioned windows.
