Description
This is an early 19th-century coachman's cottage with attached coach houses and stables, later converted to offices, lockup garages, a workshop, and storage space. The cottage is built of brown brick in an English garden wall bond, while the coach houses and stables employ an irregular bond. The roofs are slate, with the coach houses and stables having a replacement corrugated asbestos roof.
The cottage has a replaced door with six fielded panels and a blocked fanlight, set within a gauged-brick round arch. Each storey has a recessed 16-pane sash window under a cambered head. The south gable, facing Grey Friars, similarly features recessed 9-pane sashes on each storey, along with a gable chimney and a small one-storey rear outshut.
The attached coach houses and stables have two coach doorways set in recessed cambered openings, with framed and boarded doors, hinge-stones, and blocked overlights. A third doorway has been altered with smaller doors and a single-pane overlight; two pitching-eyes are present with shaped sandstone sills in the former hayloft. The building extends further north, but no particularly noteworthy architectural features are visible there. The interior has not been inspected.
The building is notable as a rare survival in Cheshire of a mews cottage, coach houses, and stables.
