Stable Hickleton Hall including The Stable Cottage and attached walls and gatepiers

The stable block of Hickleton Hall, which includes The Stable Cottage and attached walls and gatepiers, dates from the mid-18th century. It is possibly designed by James Paine for Godfrey Wentworth of Hickleton Hall, with some work by John Billington of Wakefield. The building is constructed of ashlar limestone and features roofs made of 20th-century cement tiles, Westmorland slate, and stone slate. It has a U-shaped plan, with the east side enclosed by walls that curve towards the central gatepiers, and additional walls at the north-east and south-east corners that terminate at gatepiers.

The main front, which faces Hickleton Hall, is two storeys high and has a layout of 1:3:2:3:1 bays, with the three-bay sections recessed. It features a central round-arched carriage entrance flanked by semi-domed niches set in rectangular recesses, with six-pane casements above an impost band and a pediment. The other bays contain sashes with glazing bars on the ground floor, a continuous impost band, and six-pane casements above, with round-arched panels for the windows in bays one, three, eight, and ten. The building has an eaves cornice and a hipped roof with ridge stacks at each end.

In the courtyard, there are external steps at the south-west corner. The west side has a central bay with a pediment, while the north side features two basket-arched carriage entrances, one of which has been infilled.

The cottage at the north-east corner has an attached garden wall and a shield of arms on its end wall. Inside, the original horse stalls are located to the right of the main facade, while a later wing at the north-west corner is not of special interest.
