Stables And Attached Lodges, Walls, Piers And Outbuildings

The stables, lodges, walls, piers and outbuildings likely date to around 1860, with later 20th-century additions. The main stable block is constructed of ashlar, timber and iron, with tiled roofs and decorative copper ridges. It features coped gables with finials and single ashlar stacks to the right and left. The central pavilion is a three-story, single bay structure with first and second floor bands, a moulded cornice and a shaped roof. It has a central rusticated arched doorway. Flanking the pavilion are seven single-story bays and two outer, single-story with attic, gabled bays. Wooden arcades are present, and the windows are predominantly single-light casements with stone mullions and drip moulds. The pavilion has a two-light casement, flanked by set-back coped lean-tos, each with a single casement. A single two-light casement is located at the top floor. Attached to the lodge buildings are ashlar walls with coped piers surmounted by carved birds. A low ashlar wall with iron railings runs between the piers, forming a quadrangle, with coped piers at the angles. A coped wall, on a plinth and with a single ashlar orb pier, supports a double wooden gate to the front. The lodges are single-story with attics, with the central bay projecting and gabled. One lodge has a central three-light casement with a Tudor-style arched doorway and hood mould, and single two-light casements to the left and above. The other lodge mirrors this design, but features a 20th-century three-light attic window and 20th-century openings and extensions. At the rear, ashlar coped walls form another quadrangle. A walled enclosure on the north side has coped gate piers with a double wooden door, flanked by single gabled outbuildings with doorways in flush ashlar quoin surrounds; the left outbuilding is partially blocked with a fixed light.
