Description

Heveningham House is a house that was formerly the rectory. It dates from the 18th century, or possibly earlier, at the rear, while the front section is from the early 19th century, forming a double pile plan. There is also a single-storey wing added to the right side in the mid-20th century. The rear range is constructed of red brick with white brick facing on the gable ends and has a plain tiled roof. The front range is made of white brick with a slated roof and stands two storeys tall.

The facade is symmetrical, featuring flanking paired giant brick pilasters, with the central bay slightly projecting and topped with a pediment. There is a stone band at the first-floor level and a flat parapet with two narrow raised bands at the base. The windows are inset sash types with slender glazing bars and flat arches; the ground floor windows have cornices supported by console brackets. The central first-floor window is set within a semi-circular arched recess that extends into the pediment above.

The central doorway is adorned with a Greek Doric portico, and the side openings are now partly glazed. The door is a mid-20th century three-quarter glazed design, and above the portico is a section of balustrading. Inside, there is a good well staircase featuring slender square balusters and carved ends to the treads.
