Description
The coach house and stable block, located approximately 10 meters north of Besford Grange Farmhouse, dates from the late 18th century. It is constructed of red brick and features a plain tile roof. The building is a long range positioned at right angles to the road and consists of two storeys. Notable architectural details include a dentil brick eaves cornice and parapeted gable ends.
The central loft door is boarded and may have been added later, with a circular pitching eye to its right. On the ground floor, there is a segmental-headed stable door to the left, flanked by segmental-headed two-light windows. To the right, a central boarded sliding door is accompanied by a segmental-headed window, leading to the coach house, which has a pair of large boarded doors set in a depressed archway.
The right-hand gable end features a dovecote in the apex with three tiers of openings, while the left-hand gable end has a segmental-headed window on each floor, although the first-floor window is blocked. This gable end also has a dovecote in the apex with six tiers of openings. The interior has not been inspected. The building is included for its group value.
