Description
Elm Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the 18th century, with a service outshot added in 1985. It is constructed from plastered cob on rubble footings, with what is probably a cob stack and a plastered brick chimney shaft. The roof is thatched, while the service outshot has a corrugated iron roof.
The cottage has a small two-room plan and faces south. The larger room on the right (eastern) side features a projecting end stack and the service outshot. The main part of the cottage is two storeys high. The nearly symmetrical front has two ground floor casements and one central first floor casement, all of which are 20th century with glazing bars. There is a central 20th century door and a monopitch, plank-roofed porch. The roof is half-hipped on the right side and hipped on the left. The single storey extension has a monopitch roof and two 20th century front casements.
Inside, the cottage has plain carpentry details. The main room includes a neatly soffit-chamfered axial beam without stops and a similar finish on the oak lintel of the large stone rubble fireplace. The roof has not been inspected.
