Description
Elm Farmhouse is a mid-19th century farmhouse located on the northwest side of Bridgwater Road in Bedminster Down. The building is constructed from random Lias rubble with ashlar details and features brick end stacks. It has a double-pile roof covered with double Roman tiles, green glazed tiles at the rear, and pantiles. The farmhouse has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys tall with a three-window range.
The central porch is adorned with crude crenellations and features a wide plat band, along with cyma moulded kneelers on the coped end gables. The wide segmental-arched doorway has imposts and a dropped key that rises through the plat band, leading to a large door with six raised, fielded panels. Above the doorway is a Venetian window with a flat architrave and keystone, while the other windows have splayed jambs that form crude cushion capitals beneath the lintels, also featuring dropped keys.
A 20th-century dormer in the valley provides light to the stairwell, and the rear-facing valley roof is covered with green glazed double Roman tiles. The returns of the building have paired gables with round windows in the front gables of the attic. There is a left-hand extension with a sloping pantile roof and a ground-floor window with a metal casement. Additionally, a side stair flight leads up to a first-floor entrance located in the right-hand rear gable. The interior has not been inspected.
