Yarde Farmhouse and Adjoining Barn to South

Yarde Farmhouse and an adjoining barn date from around the early 16th century, originally a small hall house. A floor was inserted at a later date, and wings were added in the 18th and 19th centuries. The farmhouse is constructed of roughcast stone rubble with a patent tile roof featuring gabled and half-hipped ends. It has two storeys and a three-window front, with 19th and 20th-century casement windows. A central first-floor window is an early 19th-century casement with leaded panes. A doorway leads to a cross-passage in the center of the building. A gabled wing was added in the 19th century, set at a right angle to the main house, with a 20th-century glazed porch in the corner. A circa 18th-century gable-ended rear wing is also set at a right angle to the lower end of the farmhouse. The interior features a smoke-blackened jointed cruck truss and deep stop-chamfered ceiling beams.

Adjoining the farmhouse at the lower end is a barn dating from around the 17th century. It is constructed of rendered stone rubble with a corrugated iron roof and gabled ends. It has doors at the front and rear, and a stable door with a loft door above is located at the lower end. The barn’s roof trusses are 20th-century replacements.
