Yew Tree Farmhouse

Yew Tree Farmhouse is a farmhouse that underwent early 19th century rebuilding as part of extensive remodelling of the Fust Estate, with later alterations. The building is constructed of rubble with stone and brick dressings, part rendered, and features a concrete double Roman tiled roof with a catslide to the rear and brick gable stacks. It has an L-plan layout and was originally designed with a through passage.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has three windows, all of which are pairs of 8-pane sashes with a central mullion. These windows have splayed stone heads with projecting keystones and brick sides. The central entrance features a plank door with a triangular hood supported by brackets, along with a stone plinth and quoins.

On the south side, there are two-light casements on both the ground and first floors, as well as two attic windows, one with ventilation louvres to the left and a blocked window to the right. The north side has a 20th-century window on the ground floor and a 19th-century cross window on the first floor, along with a brick flue and two attic windows with ventilation louvres. The rear of the farmhouse has two-light casements on the first floor, with two wooden stanchions to the left, a plank door in a plain frame with a brick segmental head to the left, and a three-light casement under a timber lintel to the right. The catslide continues over the rear wing, which includes a two-light casement and a door, both with segmental brick heads.

The interior is not accessible, but the windows at the front have internal shutters. The farmhouse is marked on a map from 1659 of Hill, which was plotted for Edward Fust, who was then Lord of the Manor.
