Property details
Description
The Wick Town Hall is a Class B listed building located in the Wick Town Centre. The property is formed of stone and slate construction and comprises a two-storey structure with an annex, a large meeting room and lift access.
Built in 1826 the property was developed to serve as the chambers for the Royal Burgh of Wick Council and the courtyard contained two prison blocks, which is now built over by extensions to the original building.
The property has a range of rooms available to suit the needs of a small or medium sized business seeking affordable office space or a hub in the north of Scotland.
Location
Wick, a royal burgh and historically a fishing port is situated around the Wick River. It was designated the royal burgh status in 1589 and the town was famously known for sales of herring in the mid-19th century. To date the town has evolved and established several light manufacturing industries such as glassblowing and distilling.
The Town Hall is located along the southwestern end of Bridge Street and is in an ideal location for businesses as it is central to the town centre.
The location benefits from multiple transport links, approximately 5-minute walk to the Bus and Railway Station and a 5-minute drive from the Wick Airport.
