Description

The former stables and coach house at Eccleston Paddocks is a two-storey building with a single-storey wing on the south side of the courtyard, constructed in 1883 by John Douglas for the 1st Duke of Westminster. It features stone-dressed red brick with gabled and hipped red tile roofs. A spired louvred ventilator is located on the roof ridge of the west wing, and there is a shaped chimney made of red brick. The building has framed and boarded doors, along with small-pane iron casements set in stone mullioned openings. The south wing has been altered and includes an open cartshed and small-pane timber casements. The interiors have not been inspected. This coach house and stables block, along with the gatehouse and former estate office, partially enclose a courtyard and are key components of Douglas's design for Eccleston Paddocks.
