Stable Block at West Side of Entrance to Swaithe Hall Farm

The stable block at the west side of the entrance to Swaithe Hall Farm, dated 1671, is constructed from rubble sandstone and features a sheet asbestos roof. It is two storeys high and has three external bays. The building is characterized by large quoins and a central doorway, which has been converted into a window. This doorway features quoins, a deep lintel with a keystone, and is flanked by the numerals of the date, along with a dripstone above. Each of the outer bays contains a later casement window set within a 17th-century double-chamfered window surround, which now lacks a mullion but retains a dripstone.

On the first floor, the outer windows have part-slatted casements in altered surrounds similar to those below, while a central slatted casement has been inserted. The left side of the building has shaped kneelers and ashlar gable copings. A large 20th-century sliding door has been added to the ground floor on the right side. Above this door, on the left, there is an original quoined doorway that has been blocked; it features a deep lintel with a keystone and a dripstone. Inside, the original roof structure remains intact, supported by three principal-rafter trusses. This stable block is included for its group value, while the lower farm buildings attached to the right return are not of special interest.
