Stables of Cogshall Hall, now house, circa 1830. Flemish bond red-brown brick; graded grey slate roof. Plinth, band at 1st floor and moulded cornice with plain parapet of stone. 2 storeys, 7 windows. Pedimented central bay projects slightly, with octagonal cupola on roof on 7 Tuscan columns and 1 replaced octagonal post, of wood. Basket-arched central entry now contains late C20 6-panelled oak door with sidelights. 12-pane recessed sashes with cambered gauged-brick arches and projecting stone cills. Evidently formerly accommodation for stable staff, the wing is little altered externally. Former coach-house projects, left, with 3 basket-arched openings on inner face, the central one in slightly projecting pedimented bay. Walled yard behind house links the building to parallel stable block; basket-arched driftway with round-arched openings to haylofts; 5 camber-arched stable doorways, 4 with divided doors; 2 stone-lined pitching eyes in projecting left wing and 4 in rear wing; 3 rows of staggered diamond-shaped vents in each wing; high brick wall links rear of house to stable block left; lower wall with entrance to yard, right. Circular recessed watering pool in yard. The gable-ends of all blocks are pedimented. The stables were evidently part of the design for Cogshall Hall, q,v.
