Description

The Racing Stables, formerly the racing stables of Euston Hall, have been converted into a house. They date from the late 17th century or early 18th century and are two storeys high, constructed of red brick. The building features a black glazed pantiled roof with overhanging eaves and a dentil cornice. The two sides of the structure project slightly to the east and west. There are five internal chimney-stacks, each with shafts that have recessed semi-circular-headed panels. Surrounding the building are blank arcades that nearly reach the full height of the walls, with a small-paned sash window in a cased frame within each panel. The upper windows are casements with a single bar to the lights and have small semi-circular roofs that rise above the eaves line. Above the entrance door, there is a larger roof over a central small-paned sash window, both of which were added in the mid-20th century. The door and window are set within the area of the original high entrance arch. The design shares some similarities with the main stables that face Euston Hall.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 62% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
