Description

Elm Cottage is a cottage aligned along the road, dating from the late 16th to early 17th century. It features a timber frame set on a sarsen sill, with colourwashed wattle and daub and brick infilling. The cottage has a thatched roof and is single storey with an attic. It consists of three bays, including a central narrow living hall and a parlour located at the rear of a large stack to the west, with longitudinally divided inner rooms to the right. The original entrance position is not determined, but the current access is through a 20th-century lean-to at the rear of the right bay. The framing has two panels high with straight corner braces, and there are paned timber windows. The roof is hipped.
