Description

The former stables and coach house, located immediately northeast of Foxhill House, were built in 1868 by Alfred Waterhouse for his own use. The structure was extended around 1900 and converted for use as student accommodation in the 20th century. It features red brick with blue brick diapering and has a shaped tile roof with gabled and half-hipped ends, along with corbelled brick verges and eaves. There are brick axial stacks with brick corbelled caps.

The building has an L-shaped plan, arranged around two sides of a small courtyard, with a short wing from circa 1900 on the southeast side and Foxhill House to the southwest. It is designed in the High Victorian Gothic style and has two storeys with asymmetrical elevations. The northeast front includes a segmental arch leading to the carriageway at the center, with a canted oriel in a small gable above. To the right, there is a loading door that has been converted into a window, and to the left, a half dormer. The northwest elevation features two gables with corbelled brick strings, while the right-hand half-hipped gable is part of the west wing. The southwest elevation faces the courtyard and has a segmental arch for the carriageway at the center, a lower wing from circa 1900 on the right, and the main wing on the left, which includes a half-hipped projection with a 20th-century ground floor window. The southeast gable end has a moulded brick oculus, and the sash windows lack glazing bars. The interior has not been inspected.
