Description

Wycke Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the 17th century or earlier, with an extension added in the early 19th century. It is constructed of timber framing and brick, with a plastered exterior and a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The building has a three-bay range facing east and a two-bay wing at the rear left, which includes one axial stack. There is also a single-storey extension at the rear right that forms a catslide, resulting in an approximately rectangular layout.

The early 19th-century entrance range projects at both ends beyond the original structure and features two rear stacks made of gault brick. There is a small single-storey lean-to extension in the rear left angle, along with a 20th-century conservatory to the left of it and the entrance range. The farmhouse has two storeys with an attic.

On the east elevation, the ground floor has two late 19th-century or early 20th-century splayed bays with French windows. The first floor features three early 19th-century sash windows, each with 16 lights and crown glass. The front has a flush six-panel door with a plain overlight, situated at the front of a central flat-roofed porch. The roof of the entrance range is hipped, while the rear wing has a half-hipped roof.

Notable external features include several early 19th-century windows, some of which also have crown glass. These include: one 16-light sash on the ground floor of the south elevation; two 16-light sashes on the ground floor of the north elevation's entrance range; one 20-light sash on the first floor of the middle range; one 12-light sash on the first floor of the west elevation's entrance range (in the rear right angle); two horizontal sashes of 18 lights on the first floor of the rear wing; and one casement window on the attic floor of the same wing. Access to the interior was refused in June 1985. The farmhouse is shown on Chapman and Andre's map of 1777 as Skinner's Wick.
