Description

The stable, coachhouse, and hayloft at Afton Manor, now used as garages, were built in 1725 and 1836, with the later date being more prominent in the structure. The building is single-storey and constructed from stone rubble, featuring ashlar dressings. It has a tiled roof with brick chimneystacks.

On the right end, there is a ground floor Diocletian window for the coachhouse and a cambered entrance leading to the hayloft. The coachhouse has two wooden double doors. To the left, there is a cambered doorcase with a six-panelled door, two twelve-pane sash windows with horns, and a wide six-panelled door leading to the stables. Inside the stables, there are two early 19th-century wooden panelled stalls with ball finials and iron hay racks, along with a four-panelled door to the former tack room.
