4/10000 Yarborough Cottage

- II

Farmhouse, now house. C16 with later extensions to rear and lower end. Limestone rubble, with
interlocking concrete tile roof and brick ridge and end stacks finished in C19 brick. 3-room plan
with axial stack backing onto former through passage; originally unheated lower end extended
to left, probably in early/mid C19; rear outshots, housing stair to centre, of C19 date. 2 storeys.
4-window range to main range, with extension to left. Timber lintels over C20 plank door and
small-paned 2-light wood casements. Interior noted as having retained many original features,
including chamfered ground-floor beams, open fireplace with C19 mantleshelf backing onto
through passage, blocked to rear with window opening in C19, and adjoining chamfered
4-centred arched wood-framed doorway of C16 type (from original central hall to through
passage). Collar-truss roof, formerly with tenoned purlins reset. A substantially complete example
of a post-medieval farmhouse built to the traditional 3-room with through passage plan; the
framed doorway is a notable example.
