Description

Buckle Yeat and the attached outbuilding is a house dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed of roughcast stone with a slate roof and has two storeys and three bays, with the outbuilding located to the right. The third bay projects under a gable. Most windows feature 20th-century casements, while the third bay has small-paned fixed glazing on the left return, with the ground floor window situated under a drip course. There are entrances to the first and second bays, along with an adjacent entrance to the third bay. The house has a left-hand gable-end stack, a cross-axial stack, and a gable-end stack on the third bay. The outbuilding consists of an open-fronted shed with a cat slide roof and barn doors. The right return is made of stone rubble, and the rear is similar, featuring an end gabled wing. Buckle Yeat was illustrated by Beatrix Potter in 'The Tale of Tom Kitten' in 1908 and 'The Tale of the Pie and the Patty Pan' in 1905.
