Description
Yew Tree Cottage is a cottage dating from the 17th to early 18th century. It has a roughcast exterior and a thatched roof. Originally a single-storey building, it has been raised to two storeys and features two bays. There is a door located in the left bay, which is sheltered by a gabled open porch. The cottage has timber casement windows and a stack on the right gable, with a hipped thatch on the left. There are later single-storey extensions at both ends of the cottage. Inside, a queen post truss is exposed in the gable.
