Description
Sackville House Stables comprise three ranges of stables constructed in the late 18th and 19th centuries, forming part of a larger complex associated with horse training in Newmarket. The stables are located north and south of a central stable yard. The north and east ranges have hipped roofs, while the south range has a gabled roof; all were originally slate-covered, but are now tiled.
The north range is two storeys high, with a hayloft in the upper storey. On the ground floor are two doorways with top-hung fanlights, and three windows with sashes and fixed frames, featuring 3x4 glazing bars, and top-hung casements. The hayloft has a sash window with glazing bars and a timber louvre.
The east range, also two storeys high, contains tack rooms in the upper storey. The ground floor has three stable doors with top-hung fanlights, and the first floor has three double casements with 4x3 glazing bars. A circular panel with a moulded frame is located between the two casements on the right-hand side.
The south range is two storeys high, with a hayloft in the upper storey. It has a doorway with a fanlight, along with sashes similar to those of the north range, on the ground floor. The first floor features a loft doorway with a vertical board door.
Internally, the north range has four caged loose boxes, reusing partitions from what were originally five stalls. The east range has three caged loose boxes, and the south range has three loose boxes replacing four former stalls.
A map from 1787 indicates buildings of a similar layout as stables belonging to Sir Charles Burbury. The stables, along with Sackville House, Cadland House Stables, and Osborne House Stables, form a historically significant group of buildings.
