Elm Farmhouse

Elm Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century. It has two storeys and attics, featuring a timber-framed structure that is rendered on the south gable, while the rest is encased in later 19th-century red brick laid in Flemish bond, with old plain tiles on the roof. The building has two chimney stacks; one is a plain red brick stack set internally, and the other is located on the rear wall at the north end, with two attached square red brick shafts.

The farmhouse has a three-window range with large-paned sash windows that have a single vertical glazing bar in each light, set in shallow reveals. The ground floor windows feature flat gauged brick arches. The entrance consists of a plank door below a similar gauged arch, situated in a two-storey canted porch topped with a small three-sided roof. There is a sash window on each side wall flanking the door, and three similar windows on the floor above.

The interior follows a three-cell lobby-entrance layout, with only the main components exposed in most areas. To the right of the entry, the ground floor room has chamfered main beams and joists with scroll stops, while the room above features ovolo-moulded cross-beams in the ceiling. The upper ceilings are original. The roof consists of seven bays of irregular width, with one row of clasped purlins and one of unstepped butt purlins, the latter having pared-off ends, along with arched windbraces. At the rear, there is a small 18th-century wing that is single storey, rendered, and has a pantiled roof.
