Elkerzee is not a statistical entity,[3] and the postal authorities have placed it under Scharendijke.[1] It has its own place name signs. It was home to 489 people in 1840. Nowadays it consists of about 10 houses. A church was built in 1741, but was demolished in 1958, because a new church had been built in neighbouring Scharendijke.[4]
The grist mill De Lelie was built in 1868 and decommissioned in 1960. In 2008, it was bought and turned into a restaurant specialising in pan cakes. The flour for the pancakes is ground by the wind mill.[4]
Elkerzee was a separate municipality until 1961, when it was merged into Middenschouwen.[5]
