'''Highwic''' is a 19th-century house in [[Auckland, New Zealand]], which is listed by [[Heritage New Zealand]] as a Category I structure. The house was built in 1862 for [[Alfred Buckland]], a wealthy colonial settler and landowner. The building sits in an elevated position above [[Newmarket, New Zealand|Newmarket]].
== Origin and construction ==
Highwic is a large house of [[Carpenter Gothic]] design that was built for a wealthy colonial settler and landowner, Alfred Buckland. The building was erected in an elevated position looking out over the township of [[Newmarket, New Zealand|Newmarket]]. In 1861, the land was purchased by Alfred's first wife Eliza for £1,000. The family with seven children, moved into the house in 1862. Eliza Buckland had two more children during her short time alive in her new house, she died of pneumonia in July 1866. The original eight room house was extended in 1874, 1883 and 1884 as the Buckland family grew bigger and their wealth increased.<ref name="SweetVilla">{{cite book|author1=Jan Harris|title=Sweet Villa of Highwic – The Story of Highwic and the Buckland Family|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rmR7MQAACAAJ|access-date=25 February 2013|year=1996|isbn=0-908577-32-X}}</ref>
Alfred Buckland married Matilda Jane Frodsham in May 1867. Matilda was twenty years younger than Alfred and went on to have eleven children of her own, nine of them surviving to adulthood. Matilda outlived Alfred, spending her declining years at Highiwc.
The building included a ballroom, seven bedrooms, a boy's dormitory, a laundry, kitchen, scullery, outside stables, grooms accommodation, a billiard house, and a service yard. By the early 20th century two inside bathrooms were added with baths, hand basins, flushing toilets and hot and cold water on tap! Family descendants who lived in the house until 1978 made alterations of their own. The property was then jointly purchased by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust (now Heritage New Zealand) and Auckland City Council to save the site from subdivision.<ref name="SweetVilla" /> Highwic was opened as a historic house museum in 1981.<ref name="NZHPT 18">{{NZHPT|18|Highwic|18 February 2013}}</ref>
== Functions and celebrations ==
A reception for the [[Prince Edward, Duke of Kent|Duke of Kent]] and [[Katharine, Duchess of Kent]] was held at Highwic in 1980. There was also a ball to aid the New Zealand Blood Foundation in 1982. The ball generated a substantial article in the New Zealand Woman's Weekly magazine.
=== The Twelve Days of Christmas ===
In 1985, an exhibition known as "[[The Twelve Days of Christmas]]" involved Christmas items such as Christmas decorations, Christmas cards, Christmas trees, Christmas carol singing, floral arrangements and wreaths in addition to antique dolls and toys. There was also a display explaining Christmas legends and symbolism, as well as a gift shop. One of the large Norfolk Island Pine trees in the grounds was covered with eight hundred lights. On a few occasions, there were also candlelit rooms.
=== 150th anniversary ===
In 2012, year-long celebrations were planned to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the building including high tea at the house, seeing a collection of Victorian era costumes and floral arrangements as part of the Festival of Flowers plus music and arts.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/auckland/local-news/central-leader/7227222/Highwic-celebrates-150th-anniversary|title=Highwic celebrates 150th anniversary|access-date=19 February 2020}}</ref> That year, Highwic became the main attraction of several Auckland Heritage Festival events.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/AK1209/S00670/highwic-to-come-under-close-scrutiny.htm|title=Highwic to come under close scrutiny|access-date=19 February 2020|website=Scoop}}</ref> The concert ''A Song Without Words'' celebrated the work of students of Felix Mendelssohn in the ballroom.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/CU1209/S00041/song-without-words-at-highwic.htm|title=Song Without Words at Highwic|access-date=19 February 2020}}</ref>

<p>Highwic is a large house of <a href="/wiki/Carpenter_Gothic" title="Carpenter Gothic">Carpenter Gothic</a> design that was built for a wealthy colonial settler and landowner, Alfred Buckland. The building was erected in an elevated position looking out over the township of <a href="/wiki/Newmarket,_New_Zealand" title="Newmarket, New Zealand">Newmarket</a>. In 1861, the land was purchased by Alfred's first wife Eliza for £1,000. The family with seven children, moved into the house in 1862. Eliza Buckland had two more children during her short time alive in her new house, she died of pneumonia in July 1866. The original eight room house was extended in 1874, 1883 and 1884 as the Buckland family grew bigger and their wealth increased.<sup id="cite_ref-SweetVilla_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SweetVilla-1">[1]</a></sup>
</p><p>Alfred Buckland married Matilda Jane Frodsham in May 1867. Matilda was twenty years younger than Alfred and went on to have eleven children of her own, nine of them surviving to adulthood. Matilda outlived Alfred, spending her declining years at Highiwc.
</p><p>The building included a ballroom, seven bedrooms, a boy's dormitory, a laundry, kitchen, scullery, outside stables, grooms accommodation, a billiard house, and a service yard. By the early 20th century two inside bathrooms were added with baths, hand basins, flushing toilets and hot and cold water on tap! Family descendants who lived in the house until 1978 made alterations of their own. The property was then jointly purchased by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust (now Heritage New Zealand) and Auckland City Council to save the site from subdivision.<sup id="cite_ref-SweetVilla_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SweetVilla-1">[1]</a></sup> Highwic was opened as a historic house museum in 1981.<sup id="cite_ref-NZHPT_18_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NZHPT_18-2">[2]</a></sup>
