Description
Elm Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from around 1700 and was restored in the mid to late 20th century. It features a timber frame, is rendered, and has a tiled roof. The building has an original ridge stack with a string course. It follows a three-bay lobby entry plan and is one storey high with an attic. There are two gable dormers and three mid-20th century casement windows, along with a doorway leading to the lobby entry, which is now situated in a gabled porch. At the rear right side, there is a kitchen wing.
