Description
Unlisted.
Underneath the present rendering is an attractive brick building of probable late C18 or early C19 date. The early photograph shows a symmetrical unpainted brick building with central front door under a flat hood supported on brackets. Two ground-floor windows match two others on the first floor, all vertical sashes with multiple panes. The roof is machine-tiled and fully hipped, with flanking chimney stacks to each side. A central nameboard reads ‘The Yew Tree. Canning’s fine Windsor Ales. Brewers to the King’ – though this has been inked in on the photograph.
In front and to the right of the pub is its eponymous yew tree, towering over the building and topped by a topiary bird. This was burnt down in the 1970's (B1)
