Elham Saddlery And Stables To Rear Stables And Outbuildings To East Of The Rose And Crown Inn

Elham Saddlery and Stables is a 19th-century shop with a stable range located to the rear. The shop is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with the left side rendered. The stables are made of a combination of buff brick, flint, and stone towards the shop, with a central section featuring chequered red and grey brick, and a painted brick rear section. The building has a plain tile roof. The shop has a short rear left return wing, while the stables form a rear wing to the right and enclose the east side of the stable yard of the Rose and Crown Inn. It is a single-storey structure with a hipped roof to the left and a gabled roof to the right. The front elevation features two large six-pane shop windows and a central half-glazed door with fielded panels at the bottom and a plain rectangular fanlight above. Each foot of the door architrave has a low tooled stone cill. A plain frieze runs over the entire shop front, supported by shaped brackets under the flat eaves soffits. The stable range consists of three gabled sections of uneven height, with stable doors in the rear section and a broad full-height weatherboarded area with a half-glazed door in the central section. The interiors were not inspected. This building is included for its group value with the Rose and Crown Inn.
