Description

Caversham Court Stables, dating from the mid to late 17th century, are the former stables of the now destroyed Caversham Court. The building is two storeys high and constructed of brick, featuring a string course at the first floor level and an old tiled roof. On the ground floor, there are three stone mullioned and transomed two-light windows, with the right side of the ground floor being thicker. The left-hand door includes a small stone mullioned overlight, and there is a stone label mould over the ground floor windows. The first floor has five small 20th century casement windows. A modern extension is located to the left, and there is a cobbled courtyard in front of the stables. To the east, there is a large detached coach house from the late 19th century. The property is enclosed from the street by a flint stepped wall with ashlar and flint gatepiers.
