Description
Henham Hall Stables is a stable block dating from the early to mid 18th century, located near Henham Hall. It is constructed of red brick, which was originally colourwashed, and features a brick modillion eaves cornice. The roof is covered with glazed black pantiles and the building has two storeys. The main block is flanked by hipped wings that are set forward.
The main block has four windows with casements under flat brick arches, and cross windows on the ground floor. A central entrance bay, which is slightly forward and pedimented, includes a porthole window in the tympanum and a wide semi-circular entrance arch within a semi-circular headed recess. There is a brick band at the springing point level. The inner returns of the wings have two windows, some of which are now blocked, along with central arched entrances. The gable end of the right-hand wing has been altered by the insertion of 20th-century cart doors.
Above the main block's roof is an octagonal bell turret on a square boarded base featuring a clock face. The turret is adorned with slender columns, an ogee roof, and a ball finial topped with a wrought iron wind vane. To the right of the right-hand wing is a 19th-century red brick addition, which is now gutted. Henham Hall itself was demolished in 1953.
