Description
The stables at Ashwell Hall, built around 1879, now include two cottages. They are constructed from coursed squared ironstone with limestone dressings and feature a Collyweston slate roof, which has stone stacks at the left end and elsewhere. The gables are shouldered, coped with stone, and have kneelers and finials. The stable block is designed in the Elizabethan style and forms three sides of a quadrangle, with Ashwell Hall across the driveway making up the fourth side.
The building is one and a half storeys high and has small iron frame windows with two and three lights, some of which have horizontal pivoting panes. There are half dormers above the ground floor. The middle section has five windows and a central two-storey projecting gable topped with an octagonal wooden and lead fleche, which features a wrought iron weathervane and weathercock on the roof ridge. The ground floor includes doors and windows.
On the left side, there are four windows, and additionally, there is a two-storey canted stone bay with two-light windows on the front and sides, topped with a hipped roof. The right side features a half dormer and a larger gable, with doors and 20th-century windows below. In front of the building are two iron columns that support the side frame of the former carriage cover. The rear of the three ranges has further gables, dormers, doors, windows, and French windows. Additionally, there is a one-storey wing with an end stack on the left side, and the middle section extends further to the left at the rear, where a polygonal staircase turret with a conical roof is situated in the angle.
