Heveningham

Pictures of buildings mentioned in the second edition “Suffolk” volume of “The Buildings of England” series by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner.

The entry in the second edition only includes the church, the Rectory and Heveningham Hall. Pevsner describes the Hall as "without question the grandest Georgian Mansion of Suffolk". The exterior was designed by Sir Robert Taylor with the interior entrusted to James Wyatt who had finished by 1784. "The exterior, of 25 bays' width and a height varying from two to two and a half storeys, is built of brick, stuccoed". Some views follow:
