Description
Tanners Cottage and Yew Tree Cottage are a pair of cottages that appear to date from the 18th century, though they may have older timber-framed cores. Each cottage is two stories high and has two windows. They feature a tiled roof with a central ridge stack. The first floor is tile hung and painted, while the ground floor is rendered for Tanners Cottage and painted for Yew Tree Cottage. Both cottages have modern square-paned casements. Yew Tree Cottage includes a 19th-century panelled door set in a trellised porch, while Tanners Cottage has a plain door in a grooved doorcase beneath a small bracketed hood. These cottages, along with the Post Office, Park Place Cottages, Glencot, Southdown House with its garden wall, and Southdown Cottage, form a group of buildings.
