Yew Tree Cottage

Yew Tree Cottage is a house dating from the 16th century, rebuilt with a date marked by plasterwork on the fireplace lintel reading "ID (Isaac Dunkerton) 1684", with further additions from the 17th century. The building is constructed of rendered and colourwashed rubble, topped with a double and triple Roman tile roof, and features three brick ridge stacks and coped verges. It is a single storey with attics, and the entrance front is positioned at right angles to the road. The facade consists of three bays, with the right two bays projecting under two front-facing gables that have copings and finials. The windows are predominantly 3-light 17th-century casements made of metal, except for the first-floor window of the left bay, which is a casement with glazing bars in a pent-roofed half-dormer. The centre window on the ground floor is a 3-light ovolo-moulded stone mullioned window beneath a stopped label, supported by iron stanchions. There are two door openings with plank doors; the left door is located in a projecting pent-roofed outshut and features a re-used quatrefoil window, while the right door is sheltered by a gabled wooden porch. Inside, there are two plank and muntin partitions, a fireplace set in a stone surround with a cambered lintel, two winder staircases, and decorative plasterwork.
