Dassels Bury

Dassels Bury is a house dating from the late 17th century, possibly refronted, with a rainwater head on the front parapet at the northwest corner inscribed '1715 S S M'. The north wing was added around 1800. The building features a mix of timber framing and red brick walling, with elaborate red brick facades on the west front and south end, while the remainder is roughcast timber framing. The south side of the rear service wing and the rear wall of the house have been covered in 19th-century red brick. It has steep old red tile hipped roofs with two plastered gables on the rear of the front range, which are concealed by parapets.

The house is two storeys with attics and has three windows facing west. Inside, there is a hall at the north and a parlour at the south, separated by a narrow bay that contains the staircase and lobby leading to the central front door. The lower two-storey rear wing to the north includes the kitchen and two service rooms beyond to the east. There are two large chimneys on the rear wall, one of which is shared with the kitchen.

The symmetrical brick west front features a parapet, a moulded plinth floor band, an eaves band, rusticated quoins, and a central window set in a raised panel that is echoed in the parapet above. The original cross mullioned windows have likely been replaced by sashes in the early 18th century, although a box frame window with 6/6 panes survives above the door. Early 19th-century triple sash windows have replaced the outer windows. The entrance features an eight-panel door in a moulded surround with an entablature and cornice that breaks forward over three raised panels in the frieze. The south wall has a similar treatment, with a floor band that breaks forward over a raised central window panel, featuring a deep gauged flat arch above a sash window with 6/6 panes. The north wing, set back on the left, has one sash window on each floor, also with 6/6 panes.
