Description

Elm Cottage is a 17th-century building that was refaced in the 18th century. Originally two cottages, it has now been converted into one house. The structure is two storeys high and features four windows made of red brick. It has a wooden eaves cornice and a tiled roof, with wide glazing bars that are still intact. There are modern additions of two windows at each end, which are complemented by matching Georgian doorways.
