The Stanton Arms And Attached Stableblock

The Stanton Arms and attached stableblock is a public house built around 1828 by L N Cottingham. It features red brick with sandstone dressings and a plain tile roof with stone coped gables, moulded kneelers, and ridge finials. The building has two large brick stacks topped by four circular posts with moulded bases and cornices, and a similar twin potted ridge stack on the stableblock.

The house is two storeys high and has four bays, with advanced gabled bays at both the north and south ends. The stableblock, located to the north, has three bays and an advanced central bay. The house includes a central gabled porch with a four-centred arched doorcase set into a massive stone lintel, above which is a stone shield. On either side of the porch are two 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion and transomed windows with dripmoulds and leaded lights. Above, there are four 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows, also with leaded lights, but only the windows in the advanced bays have dripmoulds. The south gable features a small lancet window, while the north gable displays the Stanton coat of arms.

The stableblock is attached to the north and has a four-centred brick arch with double studded wooden doors in the advanced central bay. The walls on either side have been rebuilt, except for the four-centred arched doorcase with a studded wooden door on the south side of the southern bay. Above this door are three 3-light chamfered mullion windows, and in the gable, there is a small chamfered lancet window.
