The Yew Tree

The Yew Tree is a farmhouse, now a public house, dating to the late 17th century with later 19th-century walling. The exterior is rendered in imitation stone over a brick plinth, with Flemish bond brick visible on the right side of the front facade. The roof is tiled, and there are brick stacks. The building is L-shaped and two-and-a-half storeys high, with a two-window front. The windows are 20th-century casements, with a timber lintel on the left and a segmental arch over the right-hand windows. Two 20th-century hipped dormers are set into the roof. The left side wall has a three-window range of 20th-century casements. The roof is gabled and half-hipped, with a late 17th-century ridge stack at the left end and rear. Inside, a circa-1900 grate covers the original fireplace in the left-hand room, which features chamfered spine beams with run-out stops. The right-hand room also has chamfered spine beams. Early 19th-century four-panelled doors lead to the first floor. The building possesses group value from its contribution to the surrounding historic landscape.
