Description

This stable building, located approximately 20 meters west-southwest of the Old Rectory, dates from the late 18th century or early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed, squared rubble and features a tiled, half-hipped roof. The building is single storey with a loft and has a two-window range. The windows are sashes set under wooden lintels; the left window has glazing bars, while the right window has leaded-lights. These windows seem to block former openings that had segmental stone arches. There are plain doors at each end of the building.
