PLAN: C18 house of two-room central-entry plan, absorbed into large mid C19 parallel range to west making double-depth plan; west dairy outshut.
EXTERIOR: Two storeys. Lower C18 cast front of two-window range with stone lintels over late C19 1/1 -pane sashes to central plank door; rendered porch with C20 half-glazed door. West front has stone lintels over homed 2/2-pane sashes and C20 door to south end of outshut.

Home of the Hicks family since they settled on the islands at the beginning of the C18. The older part, which was used as a post office and general stores until the First World War, comprises an unusual example of domestic vernacular predating the improvements on the islands of the mid C19 and later.
