Description

Wyberton Park is a former rectory, now a house, built in 1689 and largely rebuilt in 1761 by Dr. John Shaw, possibly with the involvement of William Sands Junior of Spalding. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with ashlar dressings and quoins, featuring two wall stacks and pantile roofs. It has a T-plan layout and is two storeys high with a seven-bay front. The facade includes an ashlar first-floor band, a dentillated cornice, and a stone-coped parapet that is swept up at the center, adorned with central and corner urn finials.

The central entrance features an eight-panel door set in panelled reveals, framed by an ashlar doorcase with an egg and dart eared surround, a raised fluted keyblock, and an acanthus leaf motif. The pedimented Doric doorcase has columns decorated with roses in the necking and foliage sprays in the frieze, along with an escutcheon displaying garlands and arrows in the pediment. The entrance is flanked by three glazing bar sash windows, while the first floor has seven smaller similar windows, all with moulded ashlar architraves. The central first-floor window features a fluted keyblock and side brackets. The corner stones are inscribed with "T Burton Shaw 1761" and "Edward Shaw," the sons of the builder.

At the rear, there is a long earlier service wing with fluted keyblocks on the openings and a large semi-circular headed stair window. On the right side of the rear range, there is a six-panelled 18th-century door in an eared wooden surround, topped with a narrow leaded hood supported on curved brackets, featuring a ribboned pulvinated frieze.

Inside, the staircase has a carved open string with three slender knopped balusters per step, including a flute, a twist, and a column, along with fluted newels. The walls of the stair feature plaster panels and eared door surrounds, with cornices and panelled doors. The library boasts a Rococo plaster ceiling.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 69% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
