As shown on old and new maps Yew Tree Cottage has been on this site since circa. 1500 which is located at the rear of the “new” house in the photograph opposite.
The new house was built around 1750 and named "New-Castle", around 1908 it started to be referred to as Yew Tree Farm. From recently researched census records it was confirmed that two families actually resided here, one in New-Castle/Yew Tree Farm and one in Yew Tree Cottage.
The main farming focus today is on the pedigree heritage flock of "Shropshire Sheep", renowned for safely grazing within orchards and trees without causing damage. The Shropshire's are a major factor in helping in the re-establishment of the ancient Perry Pear orchards currently taking place.
In addition the farm is renowned for its high quality hay, sought after by many equestrian owners and also stored for feed in the winter months for the Shropshire's.
"Farmhouse Perry", (proper pear cider), made in limited supply from the Perry Pear trees on the farm continues this old tradition. An additional 20 trees were recently planted, grafted from the ancient original trees. It is planned a further 20 maiden trees will be planted this year and an additional 20 grafted trees will be started.
“New-Castle” Cider will also be available this year made from apples on the farm.
Wassail!
