Description

The Elms is a stone house dating from 1769, featuring the initials W over WF on a tablet. It has an ashlar front and a double span, steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof with gabled ends, stone coping, and a low parapet with a wooden cornice. The building is two storeys high with an attic and consists of five bays. The windows are sashes with glazing bars, and the ground floor has keyblocks above the windows. There are central glazed double doors, also adorned with a keyblock. The house includes two flat-roofed dormers and has ashlar end and off-centre ridge stacks.

Local climate

The Elms sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 89% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 88% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
