Farmstead record REY 128 - Farmstead: Elms Farmhouse

Farmhouse. C17, probably in 2 phases; C18 dairy wing to rear. Timber framed and plastered, with some colourwashed brick casing and a weatherboarded gable end to the left; pantiled roof with glazed black tiles to the front. Additional sheds have been added but the original buildings appear to remain largely intact.

Recorded as part of the Farmsteads in the Suffolk Countryside Project. This is a purely desk-based study and no site visits were undertaken. These records are not intended to be a definitive assessment of these buildings. Dating reflects their presence at a point in time on historic maps and there is potential for earlier origins to buildings and farmsteads. This project highlights a potential need for a more in depth field study of farmstead to gather more specific age data.
