Description
Wick End House is a 17th century farmhouse designed in an L shape, featuring significant 19th century additions in the angle between the two original wings. The building is constructed from coursed limestone rubble and has an old clay tile roof. The south gable end and the first floor of the east elevation are finished with rendered timber-framing. The house has two storeys, and the windows are primarily sash types set under cambered brick heads, with some 19th century casements located on the east elevation.
