Description

Yew Tree Cottage is a cottage, likely built in the late 18th century, although it may include some earlier elements. The structure is made of whitewashed rubble and features a thatched roof. There are brick stacks at what are likely the ends of the original range. The cottage is one and a half storeys tall with irregular window arrangements. The windows are casements with glazing bars set under wooden lintels. There is a 20th-century porch located near the center of the building.
