Description
Wychling House is a house that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with some alterations made in the early 19th century. The building is timber-framed and features an early 19th-century painted brick facade laid in Flemish bond. The rear elevation and the left end are weatherboarded, while the timber-framed rear wing on the right is clad in painted brick on the ground floor and tile-hung above at the front, with a rendered surface at the rear. The house has a slate roof and stands two storeys high, with a plat band and a string course below a plain coped parapet.
To the left, there is a small corner turret that is also banded and topped with a conical roof, which likely had a similar turret on the right side that is no longer present. The narrow central bay projects slightly forward and has a hipped roof. There is a rear stack located to the left of the centre of the front range. The front of the house has a regular arrangement of three windows, consisting of two recessed tripartite sashes and one two-light casement, all with segmental heads. The turret features loop lights, and the sides of the central projection also have loop lights. The central entrance is a panelled door flanked by fluted Ionic pilasters and topped with a flat corniced hood. The rear wing to the right has two storeys and attics, a steeply pitched roof, a multiple brick ridge stack, and irregular window arrangements. The interior has not been inspected.
