Description

Sycamores is a house built around 1840, featuring 1½ storeys and attics with three windows. The walls are rendered, and it has a concrete pantiled roof. The house includes axial chimneys made of gault brick, which have sunk panels and rusticated bases. There are gabled casement dormers with carved bargeboards and collards. The windows are adorned with hoodmoulds and have small-pane wrought iron casements. A 19th-century, 1-storey open gabled entrance porch, also with carved bargeboards, leads to a four-panelled entrance door. Sycamores has group value with Cedar Cottage and Mulberry Cottage.
