Description

The stable block at Kirkley Hall was built in 1764 for Newton Ogle. It features a rendered exterior with an ashlar plinth and archway, topped by a graduated Lakeland slate roof. The building has a layout of 1:3:1 bays, with a single-storey central section that includes a central elliptical carriage arch. This arch is surrounded by a rusticated frame and has a pediment displaying the arms of the Ogle family. On either side of the arch, there are 12-pane sash windows set in architraves.

At each end of the stable block, there are two-storey pavilions. The right pavilion has a 12-pane sash window in an architrave on the ground floor and a similar 6-pane sash window above. The left pavilion features a large early 19th-century tripartite window on the ground floor, with a 6-pane sash window above. Both pavilions are topped with pyramidal roofs. Above the central bay, there is a clock mounted on a Tuscan drum with a lead dome.

Inside the archway, the soffit showcases a coffered plaster tunnel vault. On the left side of the building, there is an early 19th-century conservatory, which is single-storey and consists of four bays separated by Tuscan pilasters. This conservatory has full-height windows with closely spaced vertical glazing bars.
