Yew Tree Farmhouse
17/11/66
II
Farmhouse, now house. Probably late C16/early C17 with considerable later additions and alterations. Timber framed with plastered brick infill on high sandstone plinth, plain tiled roof. Baffle-entry type extended and converted (see the interruption in the stonework to the plinth directly beneath the stack, suggesting the existence of a former entrance at this point). Two storeys and gable-lit attic; apparently two but probably three structural bays.
Framing: three square panels from cill to wall plate, short tension braces; two three-light C20 leaded casements to each floor with one of two lights in position of former entrance; central ridge stack re-built in mid-C19 purplish-brown brick. The left-hand gable end is now brick clad and the right-hand one has planted framing. Long mid-to-late C19 painted brick extension at right angles to rear, with catslide roof and three C20 dormers in roof slope, may in fact incorporate some earlier work (see the sandstone plinth to the right-hand wall).
Interior not inspected, but said to contain some moulded plasterwork in one of the upstairs rooms.
