Pykerells House is one of only 6 thatched buildings remaining in Norwich and is Grade II listed.

Norfolk Archaeological Trust purchased the building in 1931 to prevent it being demolished in Norwich Slum Clearance Scheme, it went on to be badly damaged in WWII bombing raids. It has been privately tenanted since it's restoration after the war, but the tenant has agreed to allow visitors for the Heritage Open Day celebration 2025.
