Description
The former stable, outbuildings, and walls to The Vicarage and Glebe Cottage in Barnard Castle date from around 1852 and were built for Canon du Gard. The structure features rubble walls with ashlar quoins and dressings, topped with a stone slate roof. The carriage house and stable are designed in a Tudor style and form an L-plan. It is a single storey with three bays; the left bay contains a gabled carriage shed with a Tudor arch, voussoirs, and impost blocks leading to double boarded doors. Above this, there is a similar surround for a boarded pitching door set in a steep gable, along with a small triangular vent above it. To the right, there is a single light in a stone surround and 20th-century double boarded vehicle doors under an altered lintel. The steeply pitched roof has a higher cross ridge over the carriage house and features stone gable copings. The rear elevation has a pitching door under a gable similar to the front. The interior has not been inspected. A yard wall extends from the left of the carriage house and breaks forward towards the rear of the vicarage, where there is a pent outbuilding made of rubble with a stone slate roof, boarded doors with wrought-iron strap hinges, and flat stone lintels. To the right of the stable building, a lower wall breaks forward and ends in a pier at the rear of the vicarage, creating an entrance to the yard along with a pier attached to the vicarage. These piers are square with pyramidal coping. The site is included for its group value.
