Description
The stable block, built in the late 18th century and showing characteristics of the work of John Carr, stands 200 metres north east of Norton Hall. Later additions date from the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of ashlar and coursed rubble, with hipped stone slate roofs, a single brick ridge stack, and two rear wall stacks. It has a square plan around a central yard.
The exterior features a plinth, an impost band, and modillion eaves. The south front has two storeys with seven bays, presenting a round-headed arcade with round-headed glazing bar sashes and a central barrel-vaulted entrance. The bays towards the ends project slightly under pediments. Above, there are six eight-pane sashes, and above the entrance, a clock opening. The west side has eight six-pane sashes, with the penultimate window to the right altered to form a loft door. Below, six windows are followed by a door with overlight, another window, and repeat pattern. All windows are currently boarded up. The east side displays four breathers flanked by two windows to the left and a single window to the right, all six-pane sashes. On the ground floor, there's an off-centre segment-headed carriage door flanked by single breathers, an oval window to the left with a boarded window below it, a fielded six-panel door with overlight, a window, and a window flanked by doors. Again, ground floor windows are boarded up. The north side has irregular fenestration, including a single-storey 19th-century lean-to addition to the right.
Inside the courtyard, a projecting centre to the south has a carriage opening and five smaller windows above. There are two round-headed windows on either side of the entrance. The west side features six two-light windows with stone flush mullions. Below, a round-headed window is flanked by a door with overlight to the left, and four sliding garage doors to the right. The east side has an off-centre pair of segment-headed carriage doors with a keystone head, three tiers of breathers, three oval ventilators to the right, and a single ventilator to the left. The north side has five two-light casements, the left one altered to form a loft door. Below, a central segment-headed door with keystone is flanked to the right by two two-light casements, then a similar door and another casement, while to the left is a garage door flanked by a casement and another door.
The interior of the stable block has not been inspected.
