Description
The stable at Sutton Court Farm, located approximately 7 metres to the north-north-west of the barn, is a building dating from around 1700, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It features a timber-frame structure with brick infill and a painted brick exterior, topped with a plain tile roof. The building is single storey and consists of two bays. The rear wall showcases square-panelled timber framing, supported by a sole plate on a low plinth, while the other sides have lost their timber frame. There are 20th-century additions on the left, right, and front that are not of special interest.
Inside, the stable reveals mortices in the soffits of the front wall-plate, left-hand collar, tie-beam, and right-hand collar, indicating the positions of former framed walls. The right-hand tie-beam and queen struts have been replaced, while the central and left-hand trusses remain original, featuring queen posts, curved wind-braces, and diagonally-set through-purlins clasped by queen posts and principal rafters, which taper in thickness above the collar. The coupled rafters display carpenter's marks that are not in sequence.
