I've looked on a few old maps of the village & although there are cottages mentioned Eyres isn't one of them.
Are we able to locate it from the census ?
We may be able to locate it from the enumerator's route if it's named.

I can't see it either although there was a George Eyre (Blacksmith)  and family living in the village in 1901 their house was unnamed as were other properties in the village in that census year.   

There is reference to an Eyres Cottage at Thorpe Audlin in 22 October 1934 - Yorkshire Evening Post, when when Mr & Mrs John Scott were living there and their young child sadly was killed by a lorry.
