Stable Block To Howbury Hall

The stable block at Howbury Hall dates from the early 18th century and is associated with the original house. It is timber framed with red brick infill, mostly rendered with pebbledash, and features a hipped old clay tile roof with a zigzag pattern on the central block. The building is arranged around three sides of a courtyard and is two storeys high. Each elevation facing the courtyard has two 2-light first floor casements, primarily made of metal with glazing bars. The west wing includes three ground floor cast iron casements and two doorways, each topped with cut bracketed pedimented door hoods. The central wing has a similar central doorway, a 2-light casement to the left, 20th-century garage doors, and a single-light casement to the right. The east wing features four carriage arches with double doors. The central block is topped with a 19th-century clock turret that has a gabled roof, and there is a red brick multiple ridge stack on the west wing.
