Description
The stable block, located 180 meters south-west of Rokeby Park, dates from the late 18th century. It is constructed of tooled squared stone with tooled-and-margined dressings, and features a brick rear wall. The building has a graduated Lakeland slate roof topped with a timber clock turret. It is designed with one and two storeys, comprising one, three, five, three, and one bays.
The stable block includes a plinth, an impost band, a first-floor band, and/or an eaves band. The two-storey center section has an arcade that holds flush-panelled or boarded double doors, except for the arch to the right, which contains a round-arched doorway with a flush-panelled door and an eight-pane fanlight. The first-floor windows consist of three slatted windows, a six-pane fixed light, and a four-pane Yorkshire sash, all featuring flat arches and slightly projecting sills.
The hip-ended roof is adorned with a central clock turret that has a moulded clock face surround, twin turned balusters at the angles, slatted sides, and a pyramid roof topped with a weathervane. The flanking single-storey sections have round-arched openings; the left side features a boarded door beneath a four-pane fanlight, flanked by two 20-pane sash windows. The right side has two similar windows with a flush-panelled door and a four-pane fanlight to the right, both sections topped with hip-ended roofs. The far left end bay has a pent roof with a boarded door, while the far right end bay has a round-arched fixed window with radial glazing and a porch set back on the right, which holds a boarded door and a four-pane fanlight.
