Description

Elm Tree Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse, originally two houses, now combined into one. A 19th-century extension was later added. The building is constructed of brick in English bond, with a pantile roof and brick stacks. It began as a two-cell lobby-entry house with an attached cottage, and has since been converted to a three-cell lobby-entry plan. The farmhouse is two storeys high with three windows on the first floor. A 20th-century six-fielded-panel door is at the front. To the left of the door are two 16-pane sash windows set beneath brick arches, with a straight joint between them; a window is blocked to the extreme left. A 20th-century casement window is on the right. The first floor has 16-pane sash windows, with a blocked window to the extreme left. A dentilled eaves course runs along the top of the building. The gable ends have collapsed and fallen inward. The roof is swept and has end and ridge stacks. The 19th-century extension is not of particular architectural interest. The building is included on the list for group value.
