Description
The stables, located in the stable yard 150 metres north-west of Normanby Hall, were built in 1820 by Sir Robert Smirke for Sir Robert Sheffield. The front is made of brick, while the sides and rear are constructed from coursed ironstone rubble with brick dressings, and there is later rendering on the surface. The building features a slate roof and is designed in the Classical Revival style. It has a rectangular plan and forms the west side of the stable yard.
The structure is a single storey with seven symmetrical bays. The central bay is pedimented and protrudes slightly, while the end bays are recessed. There is a plinth and a wooden hitching rail at cill level, along with a brick band that connects the bays at impost level. The central entrance is segmental-arched and has double plank doors beneath a radial fanlight, with a circular ventilator in the gable above. On either side of the entrance are two round-headed recesses containing casement windows. The end bays feature plank doors under low segmental arches, with recessed rectangular panels above. The roof is hipped.
On the left return facing the park, there is a gabled pedimented central section that also breaks forward. This section has a band that is interrupted at impost level by a round-headed recess containing a casement window. All casements have glazing bars. The interior of the building is still in use as stables and contains 19th-century cast iron, brass, and timber fittings for stalls and tack rooms.
