Description
This coachouse and stable yard, located approximately 200 metres south-east of Tehidy House, likely dates to around 1790, with an addition in the later 19th century and subsequent alterations. The building is constructed primarily of rendered brick, with roofs largely covered in scantle slate.
The original 18th-century building forms an L-shape, with long ranges defining the south and west sides of the yard. The south range is two storeys high and features a blocked basket-arched wagon doorway near the corner, a wide square-headed doorway towards the centre (thought to have been a similar wagon entrance previously), along with various other doors and windows. These windows include several 6-pane sashes with lay-bars, one 20-pane sash, and three circular pitching holes at the first floor level; one of which contains the remnants of a clock. The west range also has two doorways near the corner, a series of seven stable doorways (the first three sheltered by an open-sided structure), and three circular pitching holes at the first floor. The roofs of these ranges are hipped at the outer ends, with some damage and replacement sections using corrugated sheet. Two chimneys are situated at the front of the south range.
A rectangular, 19th-century coachhouse occupies the east side of the yard, standing two unequal storeys high and featuring six bays. Distinguishing features include corner pilasters and a first-floor sill band. The ground floor has an arcade of basket-arched wagon doorways, embellished with vermiculated keystones and an impost band (four of the doorways are partially blocked). A domestic doorway is located at the right-hand end. The first floor is punctuated by segmental-headed windows with four panes of glass (most of which were damaged in 1988), each situated under gablets topped with cockscomb finials. The roof includes gable chimneys and two ridge chimneys, one of which has been truncated.
Inside, a doorway at the right-hand end of the coachhouse opens onto a staircase leading to domestic accommodation on the first floor. The complex is linked to the later Bassets' interest in horses.
