County Council Offices, 73, 75 & 77 High Street, Wick

The County Council Offices at 73, 75, and 77 High Street in Wick were built around 1820, with a mid-20th century addition. This three-storey, six-bay building features a curved front elevation and is now used as offices. The structure is made of contrasting coursed dark whinstone and light sandstone dressings, with a base course, cill courses on the first and second floors, and a cornice topped with a plain blocking course. The windows are regularly spaced.

The northern (principal) elevation is nearly symmetrical and includes two doors at the ground floor. The southern elevation is convex with a diagonal section to the southwest. A modern addition to the east extends southwards. The roof is curved, featuring two shallow pyramid roofs and two outer half-pyramid roofs with gable wallheads.

There have been alterations to the openings, and the ground floor has replacement plate glass glazing. The first and second floors of the principal elevation have plate glass timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slate, and there are raised stone stacks at the center of the pyramid roofs and at the gableheads.
