Description
The Old Vicarage is a house located on Dereham Road in Mattishall. It dates from the early 18th century, with a facade added in the early 19th century. The building is constructed of brick with a rendered facade and has a pantile roof. It stands two storeys tall with an attic and features a five-bay facade of sash windows that include glazing bars. The centre bay is recessed and has a porch supported by a pair of unfluted Doric columns. The entrance includes a raised and fielded panelled door topped by a rectangular fanlight. A moulded stringcourse runs along the building, and there are three dormers from the 18th century, each with two-light windows that have metal casements and some leaded glazing, all topped with segmental roofs. The house has an off-centre axial stack and a gable-end stack, and the east gable displays an early 18th-century moulded brick plat-band. There are various extensions at the rear of the property.
