Description
Wick Tabernacle is a chapel dated 1837, featuring later alterations. The building is rendered with slate roofs and raised coped verges. It is two storeys high and has two windows. The central entrance consists of double panelled doors set within a flat architrave topped with a cornice. Flanking the entrance are two tall round-headed windows with multi-pane glazing and splayed glazing bars at the top. The gable features a lancet with bell louvres, quoin strips, a shaped datestone, and a spike finial.
To the right, there is a single-storey wing that includes two smaller windows similar to those on the main building, along with a central smaller door that lacks a cornice. The right side of the building has three gabled wings of varying sizes, all single-storey, each with a similar tall round-headed window. The left side has two similar windows and a single-storey addition at the rear with a pitched roof. The rear includes a similar window in the gable end, while the ground floor to the left has a 20th-century window, and the basement level features three doors and three 20th-century windows. The interior has not been inspected.
