Coach House And Stable Range To East Of Odsey Grange

The coach house and stable range, located to the east of Odsey Grange, dates from around 1705 and underwent some alterations in the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick, featuring lighter red brick and gauged brick dressings, and has a plain tiled hipped roof with a sawtoothed brick eaves cornice. The building is one storey with an attic and includes casement windows with leaded lights and wooden lintels. On the south-east elevation, there is a boarded stable door to the left and two hipped dormer windows. The carriage entrance facing the stable yard also has boarded doors. Inside, there is 18th-century brick flooring, along with a 19th-century tack room and stable. This coach house and stable range were part of a racing establishment owned by the Second and Third Dukes of Devonshire. They were possibly constructed for racehorses by Thomas Fountaine and John Duckett of Lincoln's Inn before 1705, prior to the sale of the property to Robert Chester.
