Jays House And Attached Outbuildings

Jays House and its attached outbuildings are located on Fylingdales Station Road in Robin's Hood Bay. The house dates back to around 1320 and is connected to a stable and coach-house range from the 18th century, which was likely raised in height when the house was built. The front of the house features tooled and mardined coursed sandstone, while the other elevations are tooled without margins. The upper five courses of the outbuilding are similarly tooled, with the rest being plain. The roofs are covered with purple slate, and there are lead vents on the stable, along with stone ridges, copings, kneelers, and stacks.

The house is designed in an L-shape with a lower extruded rear wing, while the outbuilding is also L-shaped, creating a shallow U-shape that faces the rear. The front of the house has two storeys and four bays. In the second bay, there is a decorative panelled door with a patterned overlight beneath a bracketed cornice hood, and a 16-pane sash window above it. The other windows are 20-pane sashes, except for a 20th-century canted bay window on the left, all featuring broad lintels and projecting cills. The house has prominent curved kneelers and corniced stacks at both ends and on the left ridge.

The long outbuilding range to the left is blank on this side, and the house and outbuilding face opposite directions. There is a six-panel door on the right return. The rear elevation reveals the return wing of the coach house on the right, which has double doors beneath the left windows. Other features include boarded doors, small sash windows, and an inserted half dormer. The roof is hipped with a chimney at the eaves in the angle, and there are two tented, louvred ridge vents topped with ball finials.
