Description

The former stables and carriage house, located approximately 50 metres south-west of Tretheague House, is now converted into accommodation. This building features granite rubble walls with granite moorstone dressings and a grouted scantle slate hipped roof, topped with a 20th-century bellcote. The gutters are also from the 20th century. The layout includes a central former carriage house flanked by former stables and likely a tack room. The building is set into the bank at the rear, which has a loading doorway leading to the former hay loft or granary.

The exterior presents a fairly regular two-storey front facing east-north-east, with a wide carriage doorway slightly off-center. An ashlar course runs above the ground floor openings, some of which feature flat arches with voussoirs. Under the eaves, there are two tiers of pigeon holes on either side. The carriage house has a pair of old boarded doors, while a ventilated door is located to the left of the carriage doorway, accompanied by a barred two-light window with internal shutters further left. To the right, there is a doorway with a 20th-century door, and the remaining openings have 20th-century 12-pane horned sashes.

A mounting block made of dressed granite moorstone is situated at the far left of the front, complete with steps on its right and a later granite platform on its left. The interior has not been inspected.
