Description

Elm Cottage is a house from the early 19th century, built in an Italianate style. It features roughcast walls with limestone dressings and ashlar, lateral stacks, and a slate hipped roof. The building has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys tall with a basement, presenting a four-window range on the front. The entrance is symmetrical, with pilaster strips beneath overhanging eaves and a one-window extension to the left. A central two-storey porch has an open ground floor supported by Tuscan columns, an entablature, a rectangular fanlight, and a two-leaf four-panel door. The ground-floor windows are adorned with fluted architraves, while the porch has a single first-floor window with 6/6-pane sashes. The rear elevation is made of ashlar and features a tented verandah. There is a square 20th-century extension to the roof. The attached front garden includes a rubble wall with roll-top coping and ashlar piers. The interior has not been inspected.
