Anick Farmhouse, Sandhoe. Photo by Peter Ryder.

This house was once a 16th or 17th century bastle built of rough stone rubble with thick alls. Remains of the original doorways survive in the south wall. There may have been another bastle next to it. The house was altered in the 18th century. The house then renovated in 1984.(1)(2)(3)

A bastle at Anick was converted into a farhouse circa 1700, but the thick walls and the surrounds of both ground floor and first floor doors remain. (4)
