Description

The Old Post Office, located on Bawburgh New Road, is a 17th-century building with later additions. It features a rendered timber frame, brick, flint, and re-used ashlar, topped with pantiled roofs. The original structure is a timber-framed lobby entrance house with an off-centre axial stack and a gable end stack. It is one storey high with an attic, and has 19th-century and late 20th-century windows. The steep-pitched roof has shaped eaves sprockets and two sloping dormers. A two-storey masonry structure was added in the 18th century, which includes 19th-century casement windows with glazing bars and a gable end stack. There is also a 19th-century outshut with a tumbled-in half gable. Inside, the original fireplace is located at the gable end, and some ground floor ceiling beams feature a wall bracket with barred and ogee chamfer stops.
