Description

Yeomans Cottage is a house dated 1637, as inscribed on the lintel. It is constructed of limewashed rubble with stone dressings and a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has two bays. The central entrance has a lobby door with a chamfered surround and a basket-arched lintel with a hoodmould. To the left of the entrance is a four-light double chamfered window, and to the right, a similar window, but with a central cavetto mullion only, as the flanking mullions have been cut away. Both ground floor windows have hoodmoulds. A small 20th-century fixed light is located to the immediate left of the entrance. The upper floor window to the left has three lights with double chamfered mullions. The right-hand upper floor window has a two-light design, incorporating an inserted 18th-century recessed flat-faced mullion and lintel. Above the entrance door is a small chamfered basket-headed window, now blocked. There are gable end stacks and a central ridge stack. The rear elevation features four two-light chamfered mullioned windows, two on each floor. The interior includes a lobby entrance and an inglenook fireplace with stone voussoirs.
