Description
Elm Tree Cottage is a house located at the end of a row, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. It is constructed of coursed squared and dressed limestone with a thin stone slate roof and a brick stack. The building has a rectangular plan and is one and a half storeys high, with the upper floor lit by two raking half dormers. The ground floor features two and three-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements, which have stopped hoods and horizontal glazing bars.
The central entrance consists of a 18th-century fielded six-panel door with the original door knocker, sheltered by a hipped limestone slate canopy supported on wooden brackets. There is a single light window, now blocked, with a roughly chamfered stone surround in the gable end, along with a single 20th-century light below it. Additionally, there is a small early skylight with a raking roof towards the right gable end. The interior has not been inspected.
