Description
Elm Tree Cottage is a house, originally two cottages, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It was largely rebuilt in the mid-18th and 19th centuries. The left bay is constructed of chequer brick and has a first-floor band course. The third bay is of vitreous brick with red brick quoins and a first-floor band. The remaining bays are of later 19th-century brick. The roof is tiled, and there are two intermediate brick chimneys. The house is one storey and attic, with four irregular bays. The windows are wooden casements with single horizontal glazing bars. Ground-floor windows have segmental heads, while those in the gabled eaves-line dormers are set within the roof. A bay to the right is blank. A 20th-century door with a segmental head is located to the left of the second bay. There is a 20th-century brick stable bay to the left. Internal partitions reveal timber framing with diagonal or roughly curved braces, and stop-chamfered spine beams.
