Yanham'S House

Yanham’s House is a house dating from around 1790, with alterations made in the 19th century. It is built of rendered material and has a slate roof. The house follows a central staircase plan and comprises two storeys and three bays. The central entrance features Doric engaged pillars, a fluted frieze, an open pediment decorated with paterae in the tympanum, and a late 19th-century two-panel door with etched glass and a blue margin pane in the upper half. The two ground floor and flanking two upper floor windows are stepped three-light, flat-faced mullioned sash windows without glazing bars. A sill band runs along the ground floor. The upper floor central window is a single light sash window with glazing bars. Chamfered quoins are visible. The frieze to the eaves includes five paterae and four broad bands of fluting, which appear to have been inspired by Doric triglyphs, as is the entrance. An eaves cornice is also present. Shaped gable end kneelers, coping, and gable end ridge stacks complete the exterior. Inside, the dog-leg staircase has an open string and stick balusters.
