Description
Elm Tree Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century, with early 19th-century alterations. It has two storeys and attics, featuring a three-cell lobby-entrance plan. The structure is timber-framed and rendered, topped with a pantiled roof that has an axial chimney made of gault brick. The windows are mid-19th-century small-pane casements, and the entrance door is four-panelled, sheltered by a lean-to canopy supported on brackets. Inside, there is a clasped-purlin roof. At the back, there is a one-storey service wing that is likely original, which was extended further back in the 19th century.
