Description
The stables and coach-houses, located 50 meters northeast of Stowlangtoft Hall, were built around 1859 by H. Hakewill for Fuller Maitland Wilson. Designed in the Italianate style, they are constructed of gault brick and feature eaves cornices with a sawtooth band and hipped slated roofs. The buildings are arranged in four ranges around a central courtyard.
The west range includes a gatehouse with a three-storey tower on the right and two-storey lodgings on the left. The north and south ranges serve as coach-houses. The east range contains three stables on the left and lodgings on the right, with a striking giant open pediment at the center, supported by a pair of Tuscan columns and stone corbels at the first storey level. Behind this pediment, which also features a dovecote, is a square timber-framed clock tower topped with a slated pyramid roof on brackets.
The windows are large-pane sashes with segmental heads made of gauged brick. The coach houses and stables have framed and boarded doors, while the gatehouse features moulded archways of gauged brick on both the inner and outer faces.
