Description

These stables, part of which have been converted into residential accommodation, were built in 1782 by James Lewis. They are located approximately 150 metres east-northeast of Bletchingdon Park. The buildings are constructed of limestone ashlar, with a hipped Welsh slate roof and brick ridge stacks. They are arranged around a courtyard, with buildings enclosing three sides and a wall to the south. The design is in a Georgian style. The central entrance features a rusticated semi-circular arch with a keyed archway, a dentil cornice, and a domed clock turret. There are keyed stone lintels above six-pane sash windows and 20th-century doors with overlights. A mounting block is situated to the right. The range to the right has keyed semi-circular arches over what were formerly coachhouse entrances, now containing 20th-century windows. Gable ends, each with a two-window range, have keyed stone lintels above blind windows and semi-circular arched blind recesses. The limestone ashlar walls enclosing the south side of the yard include rusticated gatepiers flanking a central entry.
