Elva House

Elva House is an early 18th-century house located on Yarmouth Road in Kirby Cane. It is constructed from colourwashed brick and features a black pantile roof. The building stands two storeys tall with attics and has a single-storey outshut at the rear. The facade consists of six bays, with mullioned and transomed casement windows that have wrought iron lights, and flat rubbed brick arches above the openings. There are blocked window openings at both the ground and first floor levels. The entrance is off-centre, featuring a four-panel door with a fanlight and a 20th-century lean-to porch. The house has a brick plinth and a string course at the first floor level on the facade, as well as at the attic level on the gables. The eaves are coved plaster, and there are moulded brick kneelers at the gable parapets. Additionally, there are two 19th-century gabled dormers with wrought iron casements and a 19th-century chimney on the rear wall. Consent for demolition was granted in 1985 in connection with the proposed Kirby Cane bypass.
