Wiveton Hall

Wiveton Hall is a house dated 1653, with a later extension built in 1908 by Sir Guy Dawber. It is constructed of galleted flint with brick dressings, some of which are rendered, and has a smut pantile roof. The original layout was an H-shape, dating to the mid-17th century.

The east facade has seven bays, two storeys, and an attic. Most windows are set within openings featuring brick reveals and moulded brick pediments. A projecting gabled wing of two bays to the left features 18th-century sash windows with glazing bars. Moulded brick platbands delineate the ground and first floors, and continue across the facade. The attic has a mullion and transom window from the early 20th century. The shaped gable has an ogee top, a finial roundel, and rendered brick dressings with 19th-century cross-casements. A central porch has a semicircular-headed archway with a keystone, a band with diamond decoration, and a pediment above, with a window set above. A large pedimented window, likely dating to the 19th century, sits above and behind the porch. The right-hand two bays are gabled, with two pedimented windows to both the ground and first floors, and a pedimented window to the gable with a roundel above. Gable end stacks feature three 19th-century octagonal shafts. The rear, east, elevation follows a similar arrangement, with a central external stack and three 19th-century octagonal shafts in English bond. A 17th-century doorway is located to the left, and an early 20th-century brick mullion and transomed window is to the right, restored around 1960. Timber cross-casements from the early 20th century are situated to either side of the stack on the first floor, within 17th-century pedimented openings. Projecting right-hand bays have five staggered 19th-century cross-casements to the stairwell, set within pedimented openings and a shaped gable with a roundel. The gable return has two blind pedimented openings. The projecting left-hand bays have two early 20th-century brick mullion and transom windows in 17th-century pedimented openings. The gable return is similar. A rendered pedimented 19th-century casement is located to the first floor, and the gable returns have a 17th-century blind pedimented opening. Another pedimented 19th-century casement is to the attic with a roundel and shaped gable.

Attached to the north side of the original building is a six-bay, two-storey range designed by Sir Guy Dawber in a Jacobean style, with a two-storey gabled bay window to the fourth bay. The south front, which now serves as the main entrance, has irregular fenestration. An early 20th-century door with linen-fold panelling and a moulded brick surround are present. A stack in English bond corbels out at first floor level to the left. Small windows with two blind lights and rendered mullions and reveals sit above the door, with a similar window above that. To the right of the door, the walling is of rubble and rough render. A 20th-century single-light window with a transom and a 20th-century brick mullion and transomed window under a pediment are on the ground floor. A similar window sits on the first floor without a pediment.
