Bressingham Lodge was the rectory for St John the Baptist church in the village and was designed by architect Samuel Sanders Teulon.

Teulon was renowned for reinstating Gothic designs and reworking churches to make them more 'modern.' He is known, however, to have also created a new porch at Holkham Hall.
