November 2010. Desk-based Assessment.
Assessment of historical significance of various buildings within or adjacent to large proposed development area to north-east of Norwich.
Red Hall Farm (Building 5) is a two-storey, red brick house with a slate roof flanked by crow-stepped gables. It is of five bays with a central, single-storey porch and sash windows set below square, gauged brick lintels. Two additional wings project to the north. It is likely to date to the early 19th-century. Its associated red brick farm buildings to the north-east are probably of a similar age, including a large threshing barn.
In combination with its parkland and associated buildings Red Hall Farm is deemed to be of high historical significance.
