Description
This building, now houses, originally served as a service wing for Gayhurst Court. The core of the structure dates to the 17th century, with significant additions made around 1860 by the architect William Burges, and further alterations in the 1970s. Constructed of stone, it features hipped tiled roofs and is primarily two-storeys high, although the south wing is single-storey with an attic. The building is L-shaped, connected to the southwest side of the main house via a small internal courtyard, with the south wing extending along the southwest side of the forecourt towards the former stable block. The southeast elevation, which adjoins the main house, has an irregular arrangement of windows, some of which are modern replacements. The northwest elevation (number 10) incorporates a gable and a circular turret designed by Burges; a second turret is located within the internal courtyard. The south wing exhibits a gable centrally, and a series of modern dormer windows – seven on the right and two on the left – along with four modern two-light windows and two glazed doors on the ground floor.
