Description
This is a late 19th-century former stable block, converted and divided into a clock house and hunting lodge, situated around an entrance courtyard. The building is constructed of sandstone rubble with galleting, ashlar dressings and slate roofs.
The clock house is to the right and comprises a central, gabled pavilion two storeys and attics high, featuring crowsteps on both the front and rear. A lead-covered cupola topped with a weathervane rises above the clock face on the front. It contains a leaded, arched lancet window with a hood moulding. A large, four-centred arched opening, now boarded and glazed, has Y tracery leaded windows on the first floor and a 20th-century plate-glass door below. A gabled stone dormer is on the right-hand return wall, topped with a diagonal apex finial. An octagonal stack sits to the left of the main cupola. A single-storey range extends to the right, with a shaped end gable containing a quatrefoil panel and a vent lantern in the centre of the roof ridge. It has glazing bar casements and a single-storey range projecting at right angles. A single window range connects the pavilion to the hunting lodge.
The hunting lodge is two storeys high, with a cross-ridge stack at the centre. It has a regular front with two gabled, three-light, stone through-eaves dormers on the first floor, and two four-light leaded, stone-dressed windows below. An arched door is located in the re-entrant angle of the two ranges. A single-storey, 20th-century two-window range connects to a single-storey garage block attached to the front of the gabled range, which has a quatrefoil panel in its shaped gable end.
