Yeolmbridge House

Yeolmbridge House is a house dating from the early 19th century, with extensions added in the mid-19th century and late 19th century. It is constructed from rendered stone rubble and brick, with a rendered timber frame to the front, which was remodelled in the late 19th century. The roof is slate with gable ends, and a pyramid roof over a central turret on the front. Brick stacks are situated axially and at the ends.

The house follows a triple-depth plan with a central entrance leading into a wide hall. This is flanked by a dining room and drawing room, with a library to the rear and service rooms beyond. A verandah was added across the front in the late 19th century, and a billiard room was added to a wing on the front right.

The exterior is two storeys and an attic, with a symmetrical three-window front. A late 19th-century two-storey entrance porch is centrally located; the ground floor is open and the chamber above is supported by two piers. A pyramid-capped turret is directly behind the porch, and a glazed verandah runs across the front above the ground-floor openings to the right and left of the porch. The central entrance is through glazed 19th-century doors. The projecting chamber above has a continuous line of windows around the front and side walls, and the front gable end is tile-hung. To the right and left are two-storey canted bay windows with glazed doors and sashes on the ground floor, and sashes above. The billiard room, also added in the late 19th century, has a symmetrical six-window front, projecting forward from the main range. The billiard room has six-pane sashes and a central raised section with four six-pane windows providing top lighting.

The interior retains particularly complete carpentry and joinery details from the 19th century, including slate chimney-pieces quarried from the local Yeolmbridge quarry. Service rooms on the rear have complete original fittings and fixtures.
