Description
Bressingham Lodge, dating from 1842 and originally known as The Rectory, was designed by S S Teulon in the Tudor style. It is constructed of red brick with yellow brick dressings and has a tiled roof. The west front is two storeys high with three bays, the central bay projecting and gabled, topped with an octagonal finial. Small gables are situated over the flanking windows, featuring a parapet and diagonal brick dentils. The windows are three-light with narrow sashes, chamfered reveals, and dripmoulds. The ground floor features a large, centrally-positioned canted bay with an embattled parapet and French windows. Brick chimney stacks have diagonal brick shafts. A conservatory is located on the south side. The north side has a ground floor square bay window with battlements, displaying a coat of arms at the center, and a porch to the side. The porch features a four-centred arch with a dripmould and a date displayed above.
