Description
Elmdown Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1654 and later modified. Originally timber framed, it was encased in brick in the early 19th century and was divided into two cottages. The building features a tiled roof and has one storey with an attic and a cellar at the south end. It follows a three-room baffle entry plan with a kitchen extension at the rear of the right (north) bay. There are extensions added around 1970 to the south, and the roof has been extended down over a rear lean-to.
The entrance includes a boarded door set in a gabled porch, while the windows are 20th-century timber casements, with similar windows in the attic gables. A plat band runs around the building. Inside, there are chamfered spine beams supported by brackets over chamfered fire beams. A timber-framed wall separates bays two and three, and there is a reset 17th-century door located at the rear of the drawing room. The farmhouse also features a clustered four-flue brick stack with a datestone and a dormer above the third bay.
