Main Grandstand Building At Warwick Racecourse

The Main Grandstand Building at Warwick Racecourse is a racecourse grandstand built in 1809, enlarged around 1819, and altered in 1851. It was extended around 1900, with further alterations in 1908 and the 1930s. The structure is primarily made of brick with slate roofs and features brick axial stacks.

The grandstand consists of three adjoining stands. The central Tattershall stand, built in 1809, was enlarged around 1819 and altered in 1851. The Club Members' stand was added to the southwest side around 1900, while another stand without a canopy was constructed on the northeast side. A canopy was added to the original stand in 1908, and a totaliser along with a reinforced concrete balcony was built in the 1930s. A judges observation box was added on top in 1948.

The exterior of the Tattershall stand features a band of nine 12-pane sash windows with pilasters in between, glazed double doors to the right, and a new entrance to the left. Above, there is a 5-bay reinforced concrete balcony and a canopy with a hipped roof supported by slender iron columns. The left bay includes a totaliser with the judges box above. The basement, now concealed by a terrace, has early 19th-century 4-centred arch windows with cast-iron frames.

The Club Members' stand on the right has cast-iron posts with brackets supporting a balcony with a balustrade and canopy. The stand to the left has cast-iron posts supporting an open balcony with a railed balustrade. The rear elevation facing Hampton Street features a painted brick center from around the mid-19th century with various sash windows with glazing bars and a pilastered doorway with panelled doors. The red brick ranges from around 1900 on the left and right have 4-pane sashes.

Inside the Club Members' Stand, there is some 19th-century joinery, including panelled doors and chimneypieces in the Castle Suite and Steward's room.
