Description

Yeoland House, with an attached cottage, dates primarily from the 1830s, although the cottage has 17th-century origins, with subsequent remodelling. The house is built of painted rendered stone, while the cottage is of timber frame construction. The house has a hipped slate roof, with an asbestos slate roof to a rear range. The cottage has an axial brick stack and two further brick stacks to the central valley of the house roof.

The cottage originally comprised three rooms in line, with a stack heating the left-hand room, and with a dairy and storesheds at the right end. It is attached to the house by a lean-to to the rear and a greenhouse to the front. The greenhouse has a lean-to roof with glazing bars and lapped glass, as well as a doorway at its left end.

Yeoland House is designed as a symmetrical double-depth plan with a central staircase. It is two storeys high and has a symmetrical three-window front. The windows are 19th-century 12-paned hornless sashes, all retaining their original glass. A central porch features Tuscan columns and engaged pilasters, framing a round-arched doorway with a two-panelled door and a plain fanlight. A moulded cornice is topped by lions-head guttering. A small cupola sits at the centre of the front range, with a bellcote supported by timber struts and shaped brackets, and a bell in situ. A round-arched stair window is located at the rear.

The cottage has old panelled doors at each end, and a 2-light casement window above a 20th-century door. There are two tall blind windows towards the dairy end. Yeoland House retains many original features, including plasterwork cornices. The cottage retains some old joinery and features a chamfered beam to the heated room, with a lath and plaster smoke hood to the right, and a chamfered bressumer.
