Description
Wick Farmhouse is a house dating from around 1760, with some later alterations. The front range is timber framed and plastered, topped with a grey slate roof and featuring a rear chimney stack. The building has two storeys and a three-window range of small paned vertically sliding sashes. The central entrance has a six-panelled door with a moulded surround, frieze, and flat canopy. Internal shutters are present on the windows. In 1796, the house was occupied by Thomas Cooper, a yeoman.
