Service Range To South East Of Blickling Hall

The service range located to the south-east of Blickling Hall is a former stable and servants' quarters, now serving as a National Trust conservation workshop and visitors' accommodation. It dates from around 1620 and is constructed of red brick with stucco dressings, topped with a steeply-pitched plain tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a west facade featuring 14 bays. Notably, bays 3, 6, 9, and 12 are adorned with Dutch gables that have moulded brick base corbels. The windows are 3-light ovolo-moulded mullion types with leaded glazing and iron casements, and there are transoms above the first-floor windows. The attic features 2-light casements set within the gables. The door openings are semicircular-headed with plain stuccoed pilasters on a plinth. Dutch gables are also present on the north and south sides of the building. At the north end, there are 2-light basement openings secured with iron bars. On the east side, two large external chimney stacks are prominent, each with five diagonally-set shafts. The east facade displays irregular fenestration. Inside, the building contains a staircase from around 1700 that was re-set from Drury House in Great Yarmouth. The interior has been largely rebuilt following extensive fire damage in 1874.
