Decorative Brickwork in Hingham, Norfolk
Decorative brickwork is where craft and precision meet — and in Hingham, where the local building character matters, details like soldier courses, feature arches and projecting headers make a real difference to the finished appearance of a property. Hingham is a Georgian market town in mid-Norfolk, notable for its spacious Market Place surrounded by fine red-brick Georgian townhouses — it is from Hingham that Abraham Lincoln's ancestors emigrated to America. Much of the town centre is designated as a conservation area, and the quality of the Georgian brickwork here reflects the skilled craft tradition that Doughty Construction continues today. Doughty Construction Ltd delivers decorative external brick features across Norfolk to architect drawings and bespoke client specifications.

Decorative brickwork demands precision setting-out before the first brick is laid — arches are centred from a template, soldier courses are plumbed from a datum, and contrasting features are set out to align with window and door openings. We work closely with architects and designers to interpret the drawing and produce a clean, consistent finish that enhances the whole elevation.
