Description
This is a late 19th-century coach house, now converted into two houses, possibly designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield, with alterations made in the mid-20th century. It is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings, and has plain tiled roofs. It is built in a Jacobean (Flemish-inspired) style and has an E-shaped plan facing south, formed by a central two-story range with wings, and three-bay south ranges extending from the wings. The building has a single story with an attic, and features dormers.
The south front features a chamfered Tudor archway in the central entrance gable, leading to a 20th-century lobby. Above the archway is a three-light mullioned window with a transom, and a blind oculus with a clock face at the apex of the gable. The gable is elaborately shaped, with kneelers and a cut finial. Decorative corbels are positioned beneath the eaves, and a square lantern with an octagonal ogee cupola sits on the roof ridge. The flanking wings each have a mullion and transom window. Diagonally-set extensions, with hipped roofs behind parapets, are located in the angles between the central gable and the wings. The projecting three-bay south ranges have attic windows and parapets with kneelers and cut finials. The inward-facing elevations of these ranges were originally open-fronted, with archways supported by brick piers; the three on the left are now blocked, with two double doors and a central three-light casement inserted. Dormers with two-light casements are above. On the right side, the two outer bays are glazed and boarded, while the northernmost bay retains a mullion and transom window and a doorway with sandstone quoins and lintel, above which is a flat-roofed, tile-hung dormer. The side and rear elevations have been altered, but some blind oriels, possibly former mangers, remain at the rear. The building is included on the list partly for its group value.
