Description

The former stable courtyard, located about 20 metres northeast of Bayham Abbey, was built in 1870 for Lord Camden and designed by architect David Brandon. It was subdivided into residential units in 1976-1977. The structure is made of red brick with ashlar dressings and features a slate roof. It is a two-storey block sitting on a plinth, with quoins and a kneelered parapet gabled roof that has a central kneelered gable. Stacks are arranged from left to right. A central clock turret with an ogee dome and a spirelet with a weather vane is also present. The first floor has six sash windows, while the ground floor has five cross windows and a central segmentally arched carriage entrance, which includes boarded doors within a passageway. The inner courtyard has a single-storey rear wing with a continuous range of carriage doors.
