Description
Peaked Elm Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse dated 1632, with a late 17th century addition and rebuilding, and 19th century alterations. It is constructed of random and coursed rubble limestone, featuring ashlar chimneys. The front roof slopes are covered with stone slate, while the rear is plain tiled. The building is two-storey with an attic and has an L-plan layout.
The east front has a parapet gable with a cross-roll saddle that extends forward to the right. The upper floor and attic have single-window fenestration, both featuring 2-light recessed chamfered mullioned casements with hoodmoulds. On the south side of the wing, there is a 19th century 3-light window on the ground floor and a blocked doorway to the left, which has a Tudor-arched lintel inscribed with "I W S 1632." Above this doorway is part of a hoodmould with a rosette at the square stop. There is a lean-to roof over a stone-sided porch that now serves as a doorway with a timber lintel and a plank door in the main range to the left. A 20th century upper floor casement above the porch retains the remains of a hoodmould. The main range features a parapet attic gable with a 3-light casement, two 2-light windows on the upper floor, and a blocked 2-light window on the ground floor.
At the south end, there is a gable-mounted ashlar chimney with an egg and dart enriched moulded cap and a blocked off-centre single-light attic opening with a hoodmould. The west side has a 4-window fenestration on the ground floor, which were formerly sashes with deep stone lintels but are now 20th century casements. The upper floor has two windows: a 3-light casement with a hoodmould and a 2-light window to the right without a hood.
The north end features two gables; the right is the end of the main range with single-window fenestration and an off-centre 20th century concrete chimney, along with a lean-to below that has a 19th century fixed light. The left gable end projects forward and has an off-centre blocked attic opening with a mutilated hoodmould, a gable-mounted chimney with a moulded cap, and a further lean-to below with a pantile roof.
Inside, the west-facing room has an early 19th century plaster frieze and panelled shutters at the windows. The beams in the east wing have stepped pointed chamfer stops.
