Disused Grand Stand to Former Race Course

The disused grandstand at the former racecourse in Wothorpe dates back to 1766, with some alterations likely made in the early 19th century and around 1875. It is constructed of rendered brick with Ketton freestone dressings and limestone rubble, though the later slate roofs have largely collapsed. The building has a rectangular plan featuring a stair tower at the back.

The grandstand originally had a two-storey, five-bay arcaded front, which has mostly fallen down. However, the two-bay sides still show how the front looked, with large round arches that have keystones. The ground floor features imposts, while the first floor has a moulded extrados and stringcourses above and at cill level, along with quoins at the corners. There is a short gable-ended wing at the center of the rear.

The open-sided top storey, as depicted in William Kemp's plan of the racecourse, was replaced by a pitched roof in the late 19th century. Initials and dates are scratched on the piers and quoins, with the earliest being "GMR 1787" on the rear northeast corner and possibly "WE 179(5?)" on the northwest corner.
