Description

The Mews, formerly known as Ostler's House, is a building that dates from the late 18th century or early 19th century and was constructed for the Wentworth estate. It is made of coursed dressed sandstone and features a Westmorland slate roof. The building has two storeys and a symmetrical facade with a layout of two, three, and two bays, highlighted by a three-bay pediment that projects forward.

The facade includes a plinth and quoins, with all ground-floor openings designed as round-arched. The central bays have round-arched recesses. The central doorway features a panelled double door and a fanlight with glazing bars. The other bays have sash windows with glazing bars. The first floor has square window openings with projecting sills, featuring unequally-hung 12-pane sashes and flat arches. The second and sixth bays have matching casements. The building is topped with a cornice and a blocking course on the outer bays, and it has a hipped roof with end stacks. The left stack is shared with the adjacent riding school, which is part of the Stable Block.
