Description
Yew Tree House is a house that likely dates from the late 16th century. It features irregular timber-framing with rendered infill and a thatched roof that is half-hipped on the right side. There is a brick ridge stack located to the right of the center and end stacks as well. The house probably has a four-unit lobby-entry plan and is two stories tall with a five-window range. A four-panel door is positioned to the right of the center and is topped by a gabled hood supported by brackets. The windows have an irregular arrangement and consist of casements, all fitted with leaded lights. The interior has not been inspected.
