Description
Yavington Mead is a house dating from the late 17th century, constructed of orange brick with an old plain tile roof. It is a two-storey building with five bays and a single pile, featuring a low plinth. The right side appears to rise from the ground due to the slope from right to left. The house has rusticated quoins and a first-floor string course.
The central front door, which has been altered in the 18th century, is set beneath a classical frame from the 20th century, complete with a square fanlight above and consoles supporting a cornice. On either side of the door are two 12-pane flush-framed sash windows, likely from the 20th century. Above the door, the string course is interrupted, supported by brick corbels that indicate the original location of a porch. The first floor features five similar sash windows.
The eaves cornice is both moulded and modillioned, and the roof is hipped with two hipped dormers that each contain two lights. There are two stacks located on the rear wall, and the ridge tiles are styled in a medieval fashion with hips. Inside, there is a full-height 17th-century staircase with a moulded handrail and love-spoon balustrades.
