The Council House

The Council House, originally called The Wick, is a building from around 1700 that now serves as council offices. It features a 1930s extension to the right and rear wings. The structure is made of red brick and has a red plain tiled roof, with two red brick chimney stacks on the left. The building stands two storeys tall with attics and has three gabled dormers on the left side. It has a moulded wooden eaves cornice and a central band. The first floor has eight small paned vertically sliding sash windows with segmental arches, while the ground floor has seven similar windows, but with glazed margins and horns. The central entrance door is a six-panelled, two-light design, flanked by pilasters with moulded capitals and bases, and features a frieze and a dentilled soffit beneath a flat canopy.
