Stable Block To North West Of Craster Tower

The stable block located to the north-west of Craster Tower dates from the late 18th century and incorporates earlier materials. The front wall is made of squared stone, except for a central section of rubble, while the other sides are heavily cemented rubble with cut sandstone dressings. The roofs are covered with pantiles, except for the north side of the south range, which has Welsh slates. The building is arranged in an L-plan.

The front (east) elevation features three gabled bays. The left bay has a pair of elliptical arches, while the other bays have single segmental arches, all of which hold boarded double doors. Quatrefoil panels are present in the gables. To the far left, a short attached wall with a rebated segmental arch connects to the garden wall. The left return displays two boarded doors and a stable door, all in chamfered four-centred surrounds, along with four 4-pane sash windows, two 12-pane sash windows, and a 9-pane fixed window. There are also two low slatted windows positioned directly beneath the eaves, and the roof is hipped to the left.

On the rear elevation, the north and central bays have hipped roofs, while the south range features a large raking buttress with a blocked stone-surround doorway to the left and a boarded door with a 6-pane overlight under a timber lintel to the right.
