Description

The stable block at Denton House, built in the mid-18th century, is constructed from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and features a stone-slate roof. It has a square plan and stands two storeys high, plus a loft. The walls are banded rubble and ashlar, with an irregular arrangement of tall diamond-leaded casements that have flat arches and keyblocks, as well as three-centre arched doorways with moulded architraves and keyblocks. The main front includes a blocked carriage arch to the right, with a rectangular hay-loft door above it, and an additional doorway to the left. The pyramid roof is topped with a renewed timber cupola, which was formerly a glover, and has a lead ogee roof. Inside, the ground floor contains 19th-century loose-boxes, while the first-floor hay-loft retains some internal plank shutters. A wooden dovecote in the loft is supported by four jowled posts that rise through the building, and the roof features three rows of butt purlins.
