Description
The stable block to Cavenham Hall, located 200 metres west of the Church of St. Andrew, is a stable and coach-house likely built around 1899 by A.N. Prentice for H.E.M. Davies. The stables are on the left and the coach-house on the right, both oriented towards the stable yard and connected by a Baroque entrance arch that faces the now-demolished Cavenham Hall to the south-west. The building is one storey high with attics and constructed of red brick, topped with a plaintiled roof featuring hipped casement dormers and a central red brick chimney with saw-tooth pattern flues.
To the left, there is a segmental-arched casement window with three lights, and similar stable windows face into the yard. The entrance arch is semi-circular and made of limestone, with block-voussoirs and a large keystone carved to resemble a console-bracket. A pair of slatted half-height entrance gates is present, flanked by large ramped scrolls set on pedestals, all crafted from limestone. Above the gable, there is a heavily moulded broken pediment made of wood, adorned with mutules and an egg-and-dart frieze. The central octagonal cupola is clad in lead and features clock faces within a moulded frame, topped by a bell-turret and a domed copper roof. The rear wing on the left contains stabling, while the right side has a pair of coach-houses, with a canopy that was formerly glass-covered, supported by moulded cast iron columns.
