Description

The Stable, Shippon, and Barn of the former Home Farm of Brereton Hall, built around 1850, is a two-storey, L-shaped structure made of brown brick with a tile and slate roof. The left wing originally housed the stable and shippon, featuring a camber-arched stable door and casement windows, along with four pitching eyes to the loft that have shaped stone cills. The right wing includes a camber-arched driftway and a chimney for a former fixed steam engine, which has a tapered octagonal stack on a tall square plinth, with arched niches on each exposed side. There is also a camber-arched doorway, boarded doors, and diamond-patterned vents to the loft.
