Description
The Elms is a house that has been converted into a surgery. It was built in the mid-19th century and was undergoing alterations and renovation at the time of the survey. The building is made of red brick in Flemish bond, with some sandstone dressings, and features a hipped roof. It has an L-shaped plan with a short projecting wing on the left side.
The house is two storeys tall and has a window arrangement of 1:2. The main part of the building includes a round-headed doorway located at the angle, with the left side of the arch integrated into the side of the wing. This doorway has a gauged brick head and keystone, and it is framed by a recessed porch with a moulded wooden doorcase. Above the doorway is a small round-headed window, and to the right is a large tripartite window, which previously had an iron verandah that is now missing. At the time of the survey, a flat-arched brick head was under construction for this window. Above it, there is a top-hung casement that mimics a four-pane sash, featuring a flat-arched head and keystone.
The gable of the wing has a similar window on the first floor, a canted bay window on the ground floor, and a pedimented gable. The associated front garden wall is made of coursed squared sandstone with rounded coping, standing approximately one-and-a-half metres high, and features a concave curve at the gate piers on the right-hand end. The Elms forms a group with the adjacent property, No.5A, to the right.
