Cottage And Former Stable To Fulwell Water Pumping Station

The cottage and former stable to Fulwell Water Pumping Station, likely built in 1852 by Thomas Hawksley, is a Tudor-style structure. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof adorned with terracotta ridge cresting and brick and ashlar chimneys. The building is one storey high, with a four-bay cottage on the left side that has three windows, and a five-bay stable on the right.

The cottage includes two projecting gables on the right side, and below the valley gutter, there is a gabled porch that projects outwards, featuring a half-glazed door set in a chamfered stone Tudor-arched surround. The gables have canted bay windows with pierced stone quatrefoils at their peaks. The left two bays of the cottage have a blocked door on the right, which has a Tudor-arched stone lintel and label mould, while the paired windows on the left have flat stone lintels and projecting stone sills. All windows are sash types, with the canted bays having margined centers.

The stable on the right has a Tudor-arched stone lintel on the left under a label mould, and it features four Maltese-cross openings in pierced stone ventilators located beneath the eaves. The gables are adorned with bargeboards, and the roof has decorative ridge cresting along with ashlar-corniced ridge chimneys.
