Description
The former coach house, located approximately 5 metres east of Pitchford Park Farmhouse, dates from around 1774 and is likely the work of John Gwynn(e) of Shrewsbury. It is constructed of red brick with red sandstone ashlar dressings and has a plain tile roof.
The building is one storey with a loft and features a dentil brick eaves cornice. On the east side, there is a gabled eaves dormer with a two-light wooden casement. The south front has a central blind round arch with stone impost bands and a keystone, an inserted two-light window, and a stone coped pedimented gable above. The south front also includes three segmental-headed openings: to the left, a boarded area with a two-leaf boarded door; in the centre, a pair of boarded doors; and to the right, corrugated iron with two doors. The gable end to the north has eight brick steps leading up to a segmental-headed boarded loft door, flanked by small segmental-headed windows. This coach house is particularly notable for the architectural treatment of its south gable end and its relationship with Pitchford Park Farmhouse, which is also attributed to Gwynne.
