Description
Elm Cottage is a house dating from the late 18th century. The ground floor is constructed of red brick with occasional grey headers arranged in Flemish bond, while the first floor is tile-hung. It features a plain tile roof and consists of two timber-framed bays. The building is two storeys high, set on a stone plinth that extends around a lean-to. The roof is half hipped, and there are projecting end stacks. The windows are arranged irregularly, with two casements: one with two lights and another with three lights. There is a boarded door located to the left of center, sheltered by a flat bracketed hood. At the rear, there is a lean-to and a short two-storey addition to the right.
