Description
The coach house and dovecote at Hooton Pagnell Hall, also known as The Watertower, was built in 1787 and has since been used as a watertower and now serves as garages. It is attached to cottages that are now three separate dwellings, known as Tower Cottage and numbers 1 and 2 The Beeches. The building features coursed rubble limestone with 20th-century cement-tile and stone slate roofs.
The structure consists of two-storey wings flanking a three-storey central tower, with a window arrangement of three, three, and five on the first floor. It has large quoins and three basket-arched carriage entrances with imposts on the central block. The first floor includes a round-arched doorway with projecting imposts and a keystone, along with flanking casements in square-faced surrounds. A Diocletian window is located on the second floor, flanked by blind oculi. A lozenge-shaped panel displays the date, and there is an oversailing course beneath an embattled parapet with roll-moulded merlons.
The right wing features 19th-century sash windows on the ground floor and older casements on the first floor, all within square-faced surrounds and with projecting sills. It has three corniced ridge stacks. The left wing has undergone significant alterations in the 20th century, featuring three-light casements, a doorway to the left of center, external steps leading to a door on the right, and two small ridge stacks.
Inside the tower, there are brick nesting holes on the first floor, and a large water tank forms the roof. The central tower is heavily braced by iron stanchions and tie bars. This building is included for its group value with the surrounding structures.
