Description

The Elms is a 17th-century farmhouse located on Saxon Street in Woodditton. The building is timber framed and plastered, with a modern pantile roof that has replaced the original thatch. It features a red brick ridge stack on the left side and a gable stack on the right side. The structure has one storey and an attic, with two gabled casement dormer windows. On the front, there are two sixteen-paned hung sash windows in flush wooden frames that flank a panelled door, and to the right, there are three-light casement windows.

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 85% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 77% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 52% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
