Full Description

{1} Formerly Well Hill Farmhouse, this mid-19th century farmhouse is a typical example of the Victorian farmhouses found in the village. Probably built on the site of an earlier farmhouse (as suggested by large stone foundations), the house and its adjacent outbuilding are evidence of Crick’s agricultural history. Possibly redeveloped from an earlier property by Richard Thornton in a similar style to Marsh House, Well Hill House is an impressive house of two storeys and three bays, built in local brick with a pitched slate roof. The six-over-six sliding sash windows and six panel door indicate an early Victorian date. The brick boundary walls to the front have been retained, and the adjacent outbuilding with a corrugated sheet metal roof provides evidence for the former agricultural association of the building.
