Description
The stable block at Meldon Park, dating from the early 19th century, is constructed from tooled and margined squared stone and features a slate roof. It forms three sides of a rectangular yard that is open to the west. The east range is two storeys high, with seven symmetrical bays. It has a plinth and a moulded eaves cornice. The central three-bay section includes giant round-headed arches that enclose double doors, with Diocletian windows above. The flanking bays project slightly and contain 16-pane sash windows, while the narrow end bays have boarded doors topped with cast-iron deer's heads, which are now missing their antlers. The roof is hipped and features a central cupola with a clock beneath an octagonal louvered drum and a spirelet, flanked by cruciform ashlar stacks. The north and south ranges are each one storey high with five bays, also featuring a plinth and moulded eaves cornice. These ranges include 16-pane sash windows, a segmental carriage arch, and a stable door with an overlight, all under hipped roofs. To the south of the east end of the south range, there is a wall made of tooled square stone with flat coping.
