Description
The Coachman's House, located to the northeast of Welford Park, dates from the late 17th century and was altered in the early 18th century. Originally built as a coachman's house and stables, it is now used as stores and sheds. The building features red and blue brick in Flemish bond and has a hipped, plain tiled roof. It stands two storeys tall and includes a plat band, a coved cornice, and a single stack at the rear. The front has a regular five-window arrangement with glazing bar sashes in open boxes, although there is a false window in the second bay from the left on the first floor.
The rear elevations show evidence of the late 17th-century window configuration, which has been significantly altered, with all but one window on the left now blocked. There is a two-storey 19th-century addition with a gable parapet in the center and a low 20th-century rear wing to the right that has no special interest. Additionally, there is a red brick wall to the north, standing 2 meters high with brick coping, approximately 4 meters long, and ending in a 20th-century pier with a stone plinth and corniced cap.
