Description
The Elms is a house from the early 19th century, constructed of coursed limestone rubble with gritstone dressings and quoins. It features a stone slate roof with stone coped gables and plain kneelers, as well as stone gable end and ridge stacks with plain bands. The building has two storeys, with a lower section to the north and a double pile plan. The street front is irregular with four windows. To the north, there are 3-light flush mullion windows with small pane casements, while to the south, there are two glazing bar sashes in flush surrounds. Beyond this, there is a flush doorcase topped with a bracketed moulded stone hood, leading to a panelled door with the top two panels glazed. Above the door to the south, there is a 3-light flush mullion window with small pane casements. Higher up to the north, there are 2-light flush mullion windows, and again to the north, two glazing bar sashes in flush surrounds. The garden elevation features a two-storey canted bay window to the east with glazing bar sashes.
