Description

The Sycamores is a house from the early 19th century, which may have been re-fronted from an earlier building. It features a rendered exterior that is lined out to resemble ashlar stone, and has a double Roman tiled roof with raised coped verges and brick gable stacks, while the rear is pantiled. The house is two storeys high and has three windows, all of which are 16-pane sashes. The central entrance consists of a panelled and glazed door, topped with a flat stone hood supported by brackets. Additionally, there are two circular wall-ties on the exterior.
