Stable Block and Coach House

The Stable Block and Coach House, now adapted as college buildings, dates from the 15th to 16th century, with extensions added in the late 17th century and a late 18th to 19th century coach house at the north-west, which was converted in the 1950s. The structure is built of rubble with freestone and cast stone dressings and quoins, topped with a stone slate roof featuring coped raised verges and ashlar stacks.

The central feature is a wide, chamfered, round-headed archway flanked by square buttresses. The inner archway has a wave moulded surround with heavy studded doors and a wicket door. Above the archway is a 3-light casement window set in a hollow chamfered and segmental headed surround, complete with a dripmould and relieving arches. On either side of the archway, there are five bay ranges that end in slightly advanced pavilions topped with gables. These pavilions feature 2-light casement windows in ovolo moulded surrounds beneath straight dripmoulds, along with rose tracery windows in the gables.

The pavilions have studded panelled doors at their centres, which are topped with round heads and fanlights with bars and acorn finials. The north pavilion projects a 3 bay range of coach houses with square headed entries, and at the end of this range is a gabled wing with a semi-circular headed entry. Additionally, a 2 bay addition projects from the south pavilion.
