Description

Elm Farmhouse is a 17th-century timber-frame house that has been rendered. It features a steep pantile roof with gabled ends and stands two storeys tall with an attic, which has windows located in the gable ends. The house has mostly modern casement windows and an off-centre brick chimney stack that has two lozenge-shaped flues. There is also a later one-storey, one-bay wing on the north end of the building.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 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.
