Description
Hindringham Hall is a moated manor house that was mentioned in a lease from 1562 as "now being builded and edifyied." It is constructed of flint with red brick dressings and has red pantiled roofs. The house has an 'E' plan and consists of two storeys with attics. The main part of the house is the hall range, which features a porch and two gabled wings on the south side.
The south-east wing may be older than 1562 and includes one wooden mullioned and transomed window on each floor, along with chamfered brick mullioned windows on the returns, kneelers, and a parapetted gable. The east return has a two-storey crow-stepped gabled wing. The south-west gable is larger and features one mullioned and transomed window on each floor, stone kneelers, a stepped parapet, and a central finial, with a projecting brick stack on the west return.
The hall range has an off-centre two-storey stepped gabled porch that includes proto-classical details at the entrance, such as architrave consoles and two string courses. There is one mullioned and transomed window in the gable, one first-floor window to the east, and to the west, the hall has two ground and two first-floor mullioned and transomed windows. The east and west returned gables of the hall range have crow-stepped gables and finials.
The rear of the house has two projecting wings, with the eastern wing featuring a stepped gable, while the northern wing dates from around 1900. The house has four major stacks, two of which are built out as projections with stepped set-offs, one springing from the eaves, and the fourth dating from around 1900. The shafts of all the stacks and the finials on the gables are part of the 1900 restoration of the house. The interior is largely from around 1900, featuring a screens passage and a single-storey hall.
