Description
Court de Wyck is a house, now used as offices, built around 1820. It incorporates features from the Jacobean manor house that previously occupied the site, along with some later alterations. The building is constructed of rubble and rendered, with a limestone porch and a hipped slate roof that has stacks on the sides and deep bracketed eaves. There is a double Roman tiled addition.
The house has two storeys and three windows, all featuring 20-pane sashes with margin glazing, stepped voussoirs, and keystones. A central portico with a flat entablature and blocking course is supported by two columns with Ionic capitals and spiral fluted shafts, which are from the former Court de Wyck. The rear has plainer capitals and pilasters, along with a panelled and glazed door, a plinth, and a band course.
On the right side, there is a ground floor sash window and a 4-pane sash window to the right, as well as a lower ground floor plate-glass window with a segmental head. The rear of the building features three sashes in the same surrounds on the first floor. The ground floor includes, from the left, a 15-pane sash with sidelights, a half-glazed door with a segmental head and a Perpendicular style finial above, and another sash with sidelights, all with stepped voussoirs. There is a single storey addition to the right that has two doors and a 6-pane light at the end.
Inside, the doorcases have reeded jambs and lintels with rosettes in the angles. There is an open-well stair with a mahogany handrail, wreathed with inlay work, and stick balusters. The windows have shutters, and in the cellar, there is a small blocked trefoil-headed lancet in a deep splayed reveal, likely part of the earlier Court de Wyck.
