Description

The buildings and walls surrounding the stable yard to the north of Newton Hall date from the late 18th century and were altered in the later 19th century. The coach-house is constructed from squared tooled stone, while other parts are made of rubble with cut dressings. The roofs are covered with Welsh slate, and there is a brick stack on the coach-house.

The ranges form a rectangular yard that is enclosed by a wall with a central gateway on the east side. The south range extends beyond the yard to create a gateway into the rear yard of the Hall. The north range serves as the coach-house, which is two storeys high and has five irregular bays. On the right side, there are a pair of three-centred arches that now hold small-paned casement windows. On the left, there is a 12-pane casement flanked by part-blocked doorways that now feature sash windows, with Yorkshire sashes above. The coach-house has an eaves band and a hipped roof with a ridge stack.

The single-storey west range includes three casements and a three-centred carriage arch. The two-storey south range features a gateway with boarded double doors beneath a flat four-centred arch. Above this gateway is a panel displaying the Widdrington arms and a clock set in an architrave within a gablet topped with a ball finial, flanked by scrolled brackets. There is an open timber bellcote with a pyramidal roof and weathervane above. The single-storey bay at the far left is the end of the north wing of the Hall. The wall on the east side of the yard has flat coping and a gateway with square piers that support tall vase finials.

Notably, the clock above the gateway was originally made for Princess Amelia, the second daughter of George II, by William Smith of Moorfields in 1763.
