Description
Leicester Square Farm North Stable Range is a stable building located to the north of Leicester Square Farmhouse. It was likely built in 1793 by Samuel Wyatt for the Holkham Estate. The structure is made of English bond red brick, with red plain tiles and pantiles on the roof. It features two 2-storey granary towers at the east and west ends, with a 7-bay single-storey stable range in between. The towers have blank returns with a central blank oculus that includes four keystones and two-storey articulation on the returns.
On the south side, there is a boarded door on the ground floor and a plat-band on the first floor, which supports a honeycomb brick window with a rubbed brick segmental arch. The north side has blank ground and first-floor openings, with a part blank and part pierced door, and a loft boarded window on the first floor. The building is finished with dentil eaves cornices and hipped roofs. The stable range to the north has seven casement windows, while the south side features cast iron fixed casements and boarded doors, many of which have been altered. The north range is part of a symmetrical model farm layout, balanced by a similar block to the south.
