Description
The stable and coachhouse, located 100 meters northeast of Amport House, was built in 1857 by William Burn, with later extensions added in the late 19th century. Constructed from yellow brick with stone dressings, it features a hipped slate roof. The original structure was symmetrical, featuring a central carriage arch flanked by stables and a coachhouse on either side. The west side was later extended to create a two-storey coachhouse and domestic quarters, forming an L-shaped layout.
The south elevation is plain, with three small ventilating windows on each side below the eaves. The centerpiece has side pilasters with moulded stone caps supporting an arch with architrave moulding, which is connected to a cornice featuring a central pediment on each face. This supports a tall, narrower stone clock tower with a plain base that has a moulded panel, a clock stage adorned with Tuscan columns at the chamfered corners, and an entablature topped by a leaded ogee dome of octagonal shape with wide faces that contain projecting oval ventilators.
The north elevation, which faces the courtyard, is irregular, but the return two-storey block on the east side is symmetrical. It has a hipped roof with moulded brick eaves, raised in the center as a pediment, and features three windows above three oval-arched carriage openings. To the north side is a lower two-storey domestic wing, which faces Furzedown Lane and has a hipped slate roof, moulded brick eaves, cambered openings with casements, and a plinth.
