Description

A stable and carriage house, dating from around 1850 and designed by Charles Dyer, now used as offices. The building is rendered with limestone detailing, has a slate hipped roof, and follows a single-depth plan. It is constructed in an Italianate style. The single-storey left-hand block features a semicircular-arched doorway with an ashlar surround and a pitched canopy, alongside a window with a flat surround. The right-hand, parapeted projecting carriage house has a segmental-arched entrance with a pair of 20th-century doors. Behind this is a two-storey square tower and hay loft, incorporating a single first-floor window, a stack, and a pyramidal roof with overhanging eaves supported by brackets. The interior was significantly modernised around 1980. Attached to the building are rubble walls, ashlar piers, and cast-iron railings and gates displaying Greek decorative motifs.
