Description
Goosey Wick Farmhouse is an early 18th-century farmhouse, extended in the mid-19th century. It has roughcast walls, a 20th-century tile roof, and brick stacks. The original design was an L-shape, later extended to create a double-depth plan in the mid-19th century, presenting a 5-window, two-storey facade. A gabled porch in the early 20th century provides access to a mid-19th-century six-panelled door. The windows are mid-20th century horned sashes. The roof is gabled, with gable-end stacks. A similar two-bay block from the early 18th century is located to the rear right, set at a right angle to a mid-19th-century two-storey block positioned parallel to and behind the front range. Rear windows include mid-19th-century casements and sashes.
Inside, there are mid-19th-century four-panelled doors, some original 18th-century two-panelled doors. The hall features a stone flag floor and a mid-19th-century straight-flight staircase. The left-hand side of the hall retains a cyma-moulded beam, while the right-hand side has a complete set of chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, joists, and a chamfered bressumer over the fireplace.
Attached to the right side of the main farmhouse are one-storey, two-bay dairy and brewhouse blocks constructed from coursed limestone rubble with Welsh and stone slate roofs. The front-facing brewhouse has a brick ridge stack and a 2-light leaded casement window to the rear. The rear-facing dairy has a blocked doorway and a 2-bay collar-truss roof.
Goosey Wick Farm was recorded in the 15th century as a dairy farm associated with Abingdon Abbey.
