Arch. Late C18 and c1950. Sandstone blocks. Pointed arch with string at base of crenellations, flanked by stepped crenellated walls with plinths and shields. Resited after demolition of the lodges to the Rectory {1}. This crenelated arch was originally located on the other side of the road, with a gatehouse to each side. It was dismantled and rebuilt here in the 1950s when the old rectory's high boundary walls were demolished. The four shields affixed to the arch are that of Rector William Sancroft (1661-1664), the See of Durham, Rector Bernard Gilpin (1557-1584) , which features a wild boar and Rector George Davenport (from 1664).

Description
This house was listed Grade II in 1949 with the following description:
'House. Early/mid C18. Rendered with stone dressings; roof of Welsh slate. 2 storeys; 3, 2 and 5 windows. Main house, of 5 sash windows in keystoned architraves with projecting cills, has no door on street; plinth; stone gable coping resting on curved kneelers; 2 corniced end brick chimneys. 2-bay wing at left has tripartite sash left and sash window at right, all with glazing bars; door at right under oblong fanlight in lugged architrave with pulvinated frieze; plinth; one end brick chimney. 3-bay wing to left of this has 3 sash windows similar to those of five-bay house, 3-panelled door at right under oblong fanlight in lugged architrave, and parapet to flat roof. Interior : some architraves; deep panelled reveals to doors; dado rails; some cornices and internal shutters. Staircase has 2 turned balusters to a tread, moulded soffits, and altered curtail. Early C18 door to stairs to roof space.'
The house is tentatively dated to the 1740s, and was built by either John Spearman or the Countess Dowager Strathmore, both of whom lived at Hetton Hall (HER 7706). The first recorded resident is the Hon. Thomas Lyon, born in 1741 (possibly at Hetton House itself), when the house was known as 'Mansion House'. Lyon and his wife, Elizabeth Wren, whom he married in 1774, and their eight children resided at the house. Thomas' son, John Lyon, founded the colliery at Hetton-le-Hole in 1810, and by 1839 the house was owned outright by the Hetton Coal Company (Archibald Cochrane and Partners).
Hetton House was maintained as the Rectory in this period and was the residence of the Rev. John Nichol and his family in the 1830s. By 1851, Rev. Nichol also ran a school for boys from the property but how long this continued is unknown. Following Nichol's death in 1877, he was succeeded by the Rev. Thomas Rudd and his family who resided at Hetton House until they moved to the new rectory in 1885. It is likely that following this period the formal gardens were removed as they were no longer part of the property in 1891 when the house became the residence and practice of an Irish doctor, James Adamson and his family. By 1914, Dr Adamson expanded his practice by taking on a partner and the house was listed as the premises of Adamson and Watson. By 1934, Dr Allan Watson lived at the house with his family, and several outbuildings and elements of the former grounds were demolished, and new buildings were raised.
Hetton House was acquired by Hetton-le-Hole Unitary District Council during the 1950s and remained in the hands of local authorities until it was considered surplus to requirements by Sunderland City Council in the 2010s. The building was disused as of 2010. LISTED GRADE 2
