Wick House, Richmond Hill

Wick House is a house in Richmond, Greater London, located near the corner of Nightingale Lane and Richmond Hill in Surrey. The painter Sir Joshua Reynolds commissioned the house from Sir William Chambers and it was completed in 1772.
==History==
The upper section of Richmond Hill on which Wick House is built historically fell within the parish boundaries of Petersham. The road on which it stands was known as the ''Causey'' or ''Causeway'', ''King's Highway'' or ''Upper Highway''. This was part of a main route between Richmond and Petersham until the construction of the present route of the Petersham Road in 1773, as the previous alternative route on the lower part of Richmond Hill was frequently impassable.
Richmond Park was enclosed by King Charles I in 1637, taking of Petersham within it, most of which was common land. Richmond Gate, situated on the ''Causeway'', was one of the original six entry gates into the Park. Wick House lies about a hundred metres from Richmond Gate on the northern boundary of the remaining section of Petersham Common.
Terrace Walk was laid out at the top of Richmond Hill in the later 18th century, followed by construction of a number of fine homes including Wick House.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Richmond Hill Conservation Area 5 )
