The Elms and South Elms

The Elms and South Elms is a house that has been divided into two dwellings. The front block dates from the mid to late 18th century, while the rear wing has origins in the 17th or 18th century but was remodeled in the 19th century and again in 1895, as indicated by a tablet. The building is constructed of limestone, featuring an ashlar front and coursed rubble for the rest. It has a slate roof on the 18th-century part, with coped gables and flanking ashlar chimneys that have moulded cornices.

The structure is two storeys high with an attic and consists of three bays. It has a projecting plinth, a first-floor band course, a moulded cornice, and a coped parapet. The outer bays feature Venetian windows with sashes and raised moulded stone surrounds, while the center of the first floor has a single semi-circular arched sash in a similar surround. There are three gabled roof dormers with paired barred wooden casements and glazed cheeks. The central door is a six-panelled design with glazed top panels and octagonal lower panels, topped by an ornamental semi-circular fanlight with a semi-circular arched stone hood on shaped stone brackets.

The left gable end includes a large 19th-century sash with marginal glazing. The rear wing has hipped roofs, ashlar chimneys, and a battlemented parapet from 1895. The near bay of this wing has paired four-pane sashes on each floor, while the far bay projects and also features four-pane sashes and a slit window. The extension to the front right has two bays of three-pane sashes with wedge lintels and keyblocks, with the upper windows being semi-dormers in gables. There is an arched panelled door in a single-storey lobby to the right. The interior has been altered, with the ground floor left rooms remodeled around 1830-1840. The front bay features a moulded segmental arch over a side window on reeded pilasters, and the rear bay has arched niches with moulded pilasters.
