Description
The stables and coach house to the former Assington Hall is a building from the late 18th century or early 19th century, likely constructed by Philip Gurdon, whose family owned the hall since the mid-16th century. This structure is made of grey gault brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof. It consists of a central two-storey block flanked by single-storey wings and end pavilions. The central block is highlighted by a stone open pediment, a stone band at cornice level, and a clock in the tympanum. It has three windows arranged in semi-circular headed recessed arches, with a central loft doorway on the upper storey. The single-storey wings include doorways topped with stone cornices on console brackets. The end pavilions are characterized by plain parapets and large coach house doors set within recessed segmental arches. Assington Hall itself was destroyed by fire in 1957.
