Description

Elm House is a three-storey building with a basement, and has four windows on its front elevation. The exterior is roughcast, with pilaster strips at the ends and a plinth. The building’s origins are earlier than the 1834 survey map indicates. It has a slate roof, with tall brick chimney stacks and wide bracket eaves. The windows are tripartite sash windows, with alternate splayed bays and dentil cornices to each floor. A boarded door is located on the left side, and a half-glazed door is on the right, both sheltered by a deep panelled surround.

Local climate

Elm House sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,250 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 93% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 16 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 84% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
