Summary
| Description |
PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks. This house is one of the oldest remaining wooden buildings in Colonial Sydney. The building illustrates an important local theme of change in Sydney’s historic North End; an evolution from commercial use to commercial/residential and then to purely residential use. Samuel Sparrow, merchant and ship owner possessed the property from 1786 to 1787. The basement has been restored to his original 18th century kitchen with a cooking fireplace, a separate beehive bake-oven and an overhead ceiling pastured between the supporting beams. Thomas Jost, a Halifax merchant, bought the property in 1836 and his decedents remained there until 1971. Historical Victorian artifacts for the ground floor bedroom, parlour, dining room and store (until 1853) are being collected. In the early 1900's the roof was raised and the second floor extended to included bedrooms and bath. |
