Yew Trees

Yew Trees is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations and extensions made in the 18th and 19th centuries. The bay to the left of the center features some timber framing with thin brick infill and an external brick chimney on the left. The northern front of this bay is mostly hidden by a later 19th-century whitewashed brick lean-to, which continues across an early 19th-century extension to the left. The two taller bays to the right are also whitewashed and have coved plaster eaves, with lower walls made of brick and upper walls likely roughcast over timber framing. There is a whitewashed rendered chimney on the left with a 'V' pilaster at the rear. The rear walls were rebuilt in brick with dentil eaves in the late 18th century, and the house has old tile roofs. It is arranged in an L-plan with a late 18th-century wing at the rear, standing two storeys high with a cellar. The northern front is irregular; the bay to the left of the center has a small dormer window, while the two bays to the right feature a canted bay window with arched lights on the ground floor to the left and a sash window on the ground floor to the right above a small barred cellar window. There are barred windows and a boarded door on the lean-to. The first floor of the right gable has a three-light window with old mullions. The rear has irregular leaded and barred wooden casements, some of which are old, along with the main entry. The 18th-century rear wing is constructed of chequer brick and features a moulded first-floor band course and an old three-light leaded window facing west.
