Shirland House And Attached Stableblock

Shirland House and the attached stableblock were built in the mid-18th century, with the south facade remodeled around 1800. The structure is made of coursed squared sandstone, featuring sandstone dressings and quoins that are slightly raised to create corner pilasters. It has a plain first floor and eaves stringcourse, along with low parapets topped with moulded copings. The roof is slate, hipped to the west, and includes leaded flashings. There are brick gable end stacks on the north and east sides, and a brick ridge stack on the southern range. The gables are stone-coped with moulded kneelers on the north and east.

The building is two storeys tall with a double pile plan and a southern crosswing. The west and south elevations each have five bays. The west elevation features a central raised doorcase with a raised and fielded panelled door and a plain overlight. To the south, there are two square-sectioned mullion windows in raised plain surrounds, while to the north, two similar windows have had their mullions removed and replaced with plain sashes. Above these, there are two similar windows to the south and a similar window above the door, which has a plain sash. To the north, there are two large plain sashes in raised plain surrounds.

The south elevation has a moulded central doorcase with a glazed panelled door. On either side, there is a shallow plinth and two plain sashes in plain raised surrounds. Inscribed on the stone near the door is 'PK May 7 1780-1800'. Above this door, there are five similar windows to those below. Attached to the east is the stableblock, which has a 20th-century door and window to the west, with a blocked 18th-century two-light flush mullion window beyond. Above, there are three 19th-century casements.
