Description

The stable range of Stisted Hall, along with the walls enclosing the yard to the south, is a Grade II listed building. Constructed in 1825 by Henry Hakewill for Charles Savill Onley, the structure is made of gault brick in Flemish bond and features a slate roof. It has an E-plan layout facing south, with apsidal ends to the east and west. The main range is two storeys high, housing stables with rooms above, while the wings are single storey, serving as coach houses and ancillary rooms. The ground floor is set back, creating a covered yard, with the upper storey supported by four brick piers and four cast iron reeded columns.

The facade includes four tripartite sash windows with 2-6-2 lights and four paired sash windows with four lights, along with three plain stable doors featuring small lights. The first floor has a 2:3:2 arrangement of sash windows with six lights. All windows have flat arches made of gauged brick, stone sills, and much crown glass. The building is accented by four plain pilasters that continue from the piers, long overhanging eaves on consoles, and a shallow hipped roof. There are four axial stacks arranged symmetrically.

A central clock turret features a coppered square base, a clock, a bell, a cupola supported by six Tuscan columns, a coppered dome, and a weathervane. Each wing contains three coach houses, with five entrances bricked up, each fitted with a 20th-century casement; one wing has double doors. The apsidal ends each have three windows with 6-6-6 lights.

From the east wing, a wall extends southwards to connect with the service range of Stisted Hall, featuring one small gateway. A similar wall extends south and east from the west wing to enclose the stable yard, with vehicle gateways to the west and south, and six brick piers. The walls have stone copings and stone caps on the piers. The tithe map of 1839 indicates an open passage between the two apsidal ends, with a stable range to the north and the current coach house wings to the south.
