Description
The stables, located 50 meters southeast of Twinstead Hall, date from the late 18th century. They are constructed of red Flemish bond brickwork and feature low-pitched slate roofs. The building has a 'U' shaped plan with pediment gables at both ends of the side wings, which have stone copings on the parapets. The brickwork includes rectangular vertical paneling with deep sunken grooves on the flanks and fronts of the east and west wings.
The south elevation of the central block has a five-bay arcade, with the outer two bays slightly projecting forward as blank recesses. The three central bays contain semi-circular glazed infill with radiating 'fan' glazing bars above double doors. The outer two bays feature a circular window above a small door opening. The south elevations of the wings are similar, showcasing segmental arched windows over blank rectangular recesses. The building also has dentilled brick eaves cornices and dentils within the pediment.
The north ends of the side wings have similar gables but include circular ventilators in the pediment and segmental windows below. There are later gabled extensions at the rear and a cast iron small pane window with an arched head in the north wall. The roof structure consists of king posts, 'V' struts, and side purlins.
