Description
The Sycamores is a farmhouse dated 1672, constructed from coursed squared ironstone with an old plain-tile roof and blue brick end stacks on stone bases. It features a 2-unit plan, two storeys, and an attic, with a two-window range. The central entrance has a 19th-century part-glazed door with colored glass margin lights, framed by a moulded wood surround and a timber lintel. To the left, there are small rectangular windows with similar glazing and timber lintels. The ground floor has a four-light window with tall ovolo-moulded stone mullions, complete with hood moulds, on both the left and right sides. The first floor has smaller windows similar to those below, as well as gabled dormers featuring three-light hollow-chamfered stone mullion windows with hood moulds. Above the left dormer window is a stone inscribed with "MR," and above the right dormer window is the inscription "1672." The building has quoins and stone-coped gables with kneelers. To the left, there is a lower 19th-century two-storey, two-window wing. Inside, the farmhouse includes chamfered spine beams, with one room featuring fielded panelling and another room containing an open fireplace with a cambered chamfered bressumer.
