Description
The Stables to Trinity House is a stable block built in the late 18th century, with some alterations made in the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick and features a clay tile roof. The main block is two storeys high, while there is a single-storey block at the northwest gable end. On the ground floor of the main block, there are three stables, each with a single plank door and a leaded casement window, along with large double carriage doors located between the two right-hand stables. The first floor includes three small hayloft doors, which alternate with four circular windows (oculi). All openings are topped with slightly cambered gauged brick heads. The northwest block contains two plank doors and a casement window with leaded lights.
