Its brick on the west facade is laid in Flemish bond; it is common bond elsewhere.[2]

Built by John Couchman in 1814, it was originally intended to be a tavern, but before he opened it, it was bought by local cabinet maker William Hickman. Six generations of Hickmans lived in the house, which remained a residence until it was bought by the Clark County Bank in 1982. In 1990 it was bought by Dykeman & Rosenthal, a law firm in Winchester, Ky. In 2016 it wasn't purchased privately by a couple living in Winchester.
