Description
Henbury Hall is a stable block that has been converted into a small country house, dating from the late 17th century and altered since. The building is constructed of rendered and painted brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof topped with a wood and lead clock cupola. It stands two storeys high.
The entrance front consists of nine bays arranged in an A.B.B.B.C.B.B.B.A. pattern. Stone pilasters are located at the corners and on either side of the central bay, as well as paired between the first and second bays and the eighth and ninth bays, all featuring moulded bases and capitals. The central bay has a two-storey archway that slightly projects, with an exposed keystone, stone voussoirs, and springers. To either side of the archway, there are three bays with 3-light chamfered windows that include mullions and transoms, along with oval pitchholes on the first floor framed by exposed stone surrounds. The left bay has a half-glazed door set within a three-light window, while the first floor features a 3-light window without a transom. The right end bay also has three-light windows on both the ground and first floors. The central archway and pitchholes have been glazed.
The courtyard front is built in red Flemish bond brick and includes a brick band between the floors. The central arch mirrors the entrance front but does not project, featuring stone quoins, voussoirs, and a keystone, with a 3-light window above. To the right, there are four bays that follow a similar rhythm to the entrance front, but with first floor windows consisting of three transomed lights. The left side has six bays with alternating three and two-light windows on the first floor, along with two doors on the ground floor that have porches supported by brackets, and three and two-light windows in between.
