Decorative Brickwork in Mattishall, Norfolk
Decorative brickwork is where craft and precision meet — and in Mattishall, 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. Mattishall is a mid-Norfolk village between Dereham and Wymondham with a loose-knit character typical of the central Norfolk plateau. Its older properties include red-brick and flint-faced buildings, with newer detached housing on the village periphery. Rural mid-Norfolk villages like Mattishall often have planning and character requirements that favour materials in keeping with traditional Norfolk brick and flint. Doughty Construction Ltd delivers decorative external brick features across Norfolk to architect drawings and bespoke client specifications.
